The Christmas Releases

Christmas is our favorite time of year!!

It was a clear cool November evening. Through the door of Ray "Rock" Lewandowski's Liberty Lounge we could hear the festive crowd waiting for our next set. Cindy's eyes glowed with the reflection of the Wendy's sign across the street as she turned to me and said, "The Fan Club is getting larger every week. We should do something to thank them." Looking particularly dapper in his gray suit, Crusher offered to personally thank all of the female members. Suddenly, Pete spoke up... "Why don't we do a Christmas Record and send it out free to the Fan Club Members? And then, 18 years from now we'll record it on a computer twice the size of the
Liberty Lounge, except it'll be shrunk down so far it'll fit on a desk, and we'll get a million dollar laser beam and shrink it to the size of a pinhead and put it in the record player, only instead of a record it'll be a small silver disk that can play over an hour's worth of music!"

Well, obviously he was crazy, but we thought we'd give it a try anyway.

It's impossible to describe the fun it's been making these
Christmas Records. Recording them is like a family reunion. We laugh and
joke and drink and sing with people we love.
I'm not sure life gets any
better than that.

Regardless of your religious persuasion Christmas is the time of year to be with friends and family, and realize what they mean to you. In this hectic world it's easy to get caught up in work and business, and lose sight of what's really important: music...and love. Like everyone, we in The Flashcats have had good times and bad times each year, we laugh and cry. And maybe sometimes a month or two will pass before we see each other. That doesn't matter, we're still connected. We're friends. We're family. I hope your Holidays are fun and joyous. And I hope you have a chance to get together with your friends, to sing and dance and play music. Some friends are casual, some share your soul. Love them all, they are all important. Even if the religious significance of this season isn't for you, the spirit of the season is for everyone. It's love.
-Carl
