Sonic Overload 12/23/13

And, here it is, the Sonic Overload holiday show—songs you won’t hear in the mall or shopping center or a lot of other holiday shows, even the punk ones. No sappiness, no saccharine but it’ll hopefully put a smile on your face or even generate a few hearty guffaws. And if you don’t like any holiday music, then you can be grateful it’ll be another year until you have to hear any of this shit again.

Next week—the Best of 2013 show. Happy Holidays...
