Lol. I’m soooo glad you re-shared this! I didn’t get a chance to read it all back in ’06. If you haven’t already discovered these guys, you should check them out! There’s a terrific a capella group out of Indiana called “Straight, No Chaser”; check out their Christmas music! On a side note: I want to express my personal gratitude for how you handle things as a composer… I was 1st chair trombonist in the ATSSB Texas All-State Band in 2009. This was the first chance I got to work with a composer (you-performing “Undertow”), and I’ve had several since. May I just say, that I wish they had cut through the bull crap like you did. You seemed better prepared and had no problem wording your thoughts so that we understood just what you wanted. So thank you for that, and good luck on future endeavors. You have the support of many of us at Texas Tech!

My favorite is Jimmy Buffet’s “Christmas in the Caribbean.”

if you don’t have them, the Christmas recordings by The Sonics (proto-punk group from Seattle in the ’60′s) are hilarious. also, their version of Louie, Louie is the only version of that steamin’ heap that I can listen to…

I know this is two years old, but a little gratitude was in order. My roommate and I were just discussing our mutual hatred of both “Christmas Shoes” and “Proud to be an American.” As it is finals week, I decided to google the two titles simultaneously…and I found you. Thank you, John Mackey. Thank you.

Those shoes is the most messed up, dumb ass, lame garbage ever written. It is most surely a tool of the devil. On second thought the devil is smarter then that.
gee kid, your moms dying but everything will be ok because she has these shoes
