a bottle rocket christmas

this saturday bottle rocket has its annual christmas party - or as fellow rocketeer michael has decided to call it, our secual non-denomenational winter fest. we tend to have it at this time of year so as not to confuse anyone. michael, care to introduce things further?

Ho ho ho everyone,

Being the kind of club night that makes its own organic pesto from scratch, writes po-faced letters into The Guardian about the horrendous carbon footprint of its travel correspondents, and sternly lectures all the other club nights down the pub about how it recycles its own faeces to make vegan shoes for orphans, Bottle Rocket is aware that Christmas is a deeply offensive team of year. It is yet another exampl...e of western cultural imperialism and should, of course, be abolished. However, it is responsible for some damn fine music which overrides everything else, and this is what we'll be celebrating down at the Latter Day Church of Bottle Rocket on Saturday the 18th of December. So if you fancy a wee yuletide celebration featuring the usual mix of indiepop, rock n roll, postpunk, motown and the like, but with a with a festive slant, get your dancing skis on and head down to Nice 'n' Sleazy. There may also be balloons, decorations or Christmassy treats if we get round to it, but no promises like. Happy holidays!
