merry extremely late christmas

So, I missed posting about a bunch of shows this week. (Did anyone notice?)

Today is the Julian calendar's date for the pagan winter festival of Yule. In light of this joyous occasion there has been organized a celebration, to honor gods of old with toasts and merrymaking to ensure a quick return to warmer seasons. Of course, it's fucking 80 degrees here in Florida so the gods can pretty much fuck themselves. That doesn't mean we won't party though!

Today is A Very Destroyio Christmas at Churchill's. Get your ass down here OR SANTA WILL BE ANGRY.

This one is exciting to me. I don't know any of them but Dead Meat and Jacuzzi Boys, and while Jacuzzi Boys are sort of a local favorite, I really dig Dead Meat (heh! a pun! yes, i hate me too). I highly recommend checking it out (it is not strictly punk).
