Stuck In Thee Garage #405: December 24, 2021

Even if you're not big on the religious or commercial parts of the holiday, Christmas is still a pretty huge deal in Western society. After all, hopefully you at least get a few days off from work. Anyhoo, we here at Stuck In Thee Garage like to celebrate each year with two full hours of holiday-themed rock jammers, and this year is no exception. From a gaggle of Boston indie rockers to a mournful classic from LCD Soundsystem to EIGHT glorious minutes of Kurtis Blow ripping it up, this show's got it all. Gather by the tree and crank it up already! Oh, and don't mind Paulie, he's drunk.
