Christmas A Go-Go!

O.K. it's Christmas night. Santa has come and gone and is four fingers deep into the Peppermint Schnapps at the local gin joint, and is making moves on all the female elves. You did the family thing, went to a friend's house or two, and all you've got left to look forward to is gridlock on your weary way home. Rejoice, Pilgrim! You can still salvage this day yet. It's the Underground Garage Christmas a Go-Go Spectacular to help you get wherever you're going. It's every cool Christmas record ever made, including the Ramones, Bob Seger, Dion, Slade, the Beatles, the Ronettes, the Raveonettes, and Brian Setzer. And what's Christmas without Soupy Sales?
