Christmas in Heaven

GOOD EVENING LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
IT’S TRULY A REAL HONOURABLE EXPERIENCE
TO BE HERE THIS EVENING.
A VERY WONDERFUL AND WARM AND
EMOTIONAL MOMENT FOR ALL OF US.
AND I’D LIKE TO SING A SONG
FOR ALL OF YOU.

It’s Christmas in Heaven,
All the children sing,
It’s Christmas in Heaven,
Hark hark those church bells ring.

It’s Christmas in Heaven,
The snow falls from the sky …
But it’s nice and warm and everyone
Looks smart and wears a tie.

It’s Christmas in Heaven,
There’s great films on TV …
“The Sound of Music” twice an hour
And “Jaws” I, II and III.

There’s gifts for all the family,
There’s toiletries and trains …
There’s Sony Walkman Headphone sets
And the latest video games.

It’s Christmas, it’s Christmas in Heaven,
Hip hip hip hip hip hooray,
Every single day,
Is Christmas day.

It’s Christmas, it’s Christmas in Heaven,
Hip hip hip hip hip hooray,
Every single day,
It’s Christmas day.

KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas 1998


The year is finally over, nothing much left but for me to post a new post. Best of all, its a radio rant: I haven't listened to KROQ for many, many years now, since all their music sounds too similar and boring. Even the legendary Rodney on the Roq has lost his ways. I did go to an KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas show, the first night, back in 1998. Bands that night of that year included Barenaked Ladies, The Cardigans, Reel Big Fish, Sugar Ray, blink-182, Hole, The Offspring, and closing the show, KoRn. The concert was held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, right next to USC.

As a final treat for everyone this year, I have for you the entire 24-minute set by blink-182, from that 1998 KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas show I attended. That was my first ever concert at age 13, and I still think it was a pretty damn good show. I will probably change that thought within the new year...
