Sorry, but I feel obligated to do this.

EDIT: Don't watch if you're feeling lonely, emotional, sentimental, wishy-washy, or nostalgic

Not many people know about Emmit Otters Jug Band Christmas...which i love.  Coming from a musical family this was a tradition in my house to watch on Christmas Eve..i'm now 30 and still watch it every Christmas.   I had a friend find the DVD at some record store in New Jersey and mail it to me...


Thats some of the coolest news I heard in a long while... :-*
