Let's face the facts. I just don't see eye to eye with Norman Rockwell or Bing Crosby or for that matter "It's A Wonderful Life". It is way too sweet for my taste at the Holidays. As Charlie Brown said "Christmas is too commercial". I get more choked up at the movie "Scrooged" when Bill Murray give his passionate speech at the end or at the greatest Christmas song ever by the Pogues and the late Kirsty MacColl, "Fairytale Of New York", when Shane and Kirsty sing this to each other at the end of the song.. "I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you"... May your hope and the dreams you build come true this Christmas.
JUST THE FACTS

- Hello there, maybe you found this site by luck, or maybe I told you about it. Whatever the case may be, welcome! This is not some fancy blog, with me posting on it all day, but one that has "just the facts". You know, the important things in life. The tap list, events coming up, and specials. Yeah, I'm even going to comment on some of the stuff I will be doing here. So grab a beer and relax, the show is getting ready to start.
