Kosmo here using his festive alter ego...  I'll be spinning the tunes for the event.  Since it's a holiday party expect a bit of fluff to go along with the Holiday Classics.  My stocking is currently stuffed with christmas tunes.  Heres just a glimpse of what can be expected:
 
 Root Boy Slim -"X-mas at Kmart"
 Captain Sensible - "One Christmas Catalouge"
 El Vez -"Feliz Navidad"
 The Waitresses - "Christmas Wrapping"
 Roy Orbison - " Pretty Paper"
 The Dirtbombs - "My Last Christmas"
 The Kaisers - "Merry Christmas Loopy Lu"
 Marvin Gaye - "Purple Snowflakes"
 Dandy Warhols - "Little Drummer Boy"
 Robbie Williams - "Walk This Sleigh"
 Man or Astroman - "Frosty the Snowman"
 The White Stripes - "Candy Cane Children"
 Slade - "Mary Xmas Everybody"
 Ron Wood & Wizzard - "I Wish Everyday Could be Christmas"
 Wham! - "Last Christmas"
 The Pogues & Kirsty MacColl - "Fairytale of New York"
 
 Seeing as Guiny isn't attending I'll be leaving the Big 80's Christmas compliation at home  :)
 
 PM me at evilsanta if there is something you would like to hear, I'll try my best to honor any requests.  No guarantees though...

How will you know it's us, since many of us have never been identified before, therefore lacking any physical qualities to look for?

You'll be easy, we'll just look at your socks.

How about "I Was Born on Christmas Day" by St. Etienne? Or "Lonely This Christmas" by Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine? Those are 2 of my favorite Christmas songs. And "2000 Miles" by the Pretenders.

I think I have the 7" for "All I want for christmas is my 2 front teeth" and some other abominations from my youth.
 
 Only Snoopy Vs. the Red Baron I know I have is the main song by the Buckinghams.

are we going to have name tags or something that will tell who we are (aside from redsock of course, who can just wear red socks!)
 
 lilies are not really in season now so i can't walk in holding a bunch of those.  :D

I used to have a great reggae christmas album.  It included such classics as:
 
 Santa is a Black Man
 Irie Christmas
 Santa Claus is Skanking to Town
 
 and many, many more.
 
 Any chance you have some of these non-stop hits?
