Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas dudes!!
Hope you all enjoy time with fam. My wife and I are solo in this world as our folks are long gone. Weird to not do the traditional stuff we used to with parents.
We are going to Bear valley driving in a Ca snowstorm and skiing Christmas day. Wifey's sister's fam have a condo so we will hang them and nephews who also ski so good food and beverages -making new traditions!

Peace and love from us to you all!

Awesome! I have kids, and it’s full on Christmas here.

But we live 20 minutes by car from a nice little local ski resort. So Christmas day will be our first ride this year. The boys are park skiers and im just an old boarder.

man im fucking bumming right now. our drummer, basically my best friend, doesnt have any family. both his parents died a while back. i keep trying to have him come over for my families holidays but he says he just wants to be alone bc when he goes over to friends houses it just makes him feel worse. just fucking hurts my heart when he says stuff like never gets anything for xmas - like thats not what this all about but they passed away when he was pretty young so its just really messed up. sucks that some people out there dont have anyone. im debating just showing at up his house and trying to get him to come over but i dont want him to be mad at me bc i have already invited him a few times. im going to get him a present today but the whole thing just bums me out.

Sucks… but respect his wishes.

One of my best friends and fantastic musician died day before yesterday out of the blue. Five years younger than me. One of the nicest most generous people you could ever have the pleasure of meeting.
It just shows you life is short and you never know when it will end. Tell your loved ones how you feel and live every day.

Wishing everyone Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and a fulfilling new year!

May we find satisfying gigs in 2025.

Hoping we get to play and perform as much as possible in the new year.

Praying that we find the notes we are searching for while improvising and our ankles don't get sprained while switching between pedals and presets.

Wishing our tubes don't glow more than they are supposed to in 2025!

Merry Christmas all! It's been fun coming on here this year, a lot of laughs and some really sad moments too, but just thankful to be here and share some gear and music talk.

Condolences @Eagle , sorry to hear about your friend.

As someone with a not-so-awesome family situation I’d respect his wishes this year and maybe work on something for next year. This is the weirdest time of the year for me and I can’t wait for it to pass. When people ask “What are you doing for Christmas?” I have the choice to lie and tell them I’ll be doing the family thing, or tell the truth and deal with the pity party I’m not looking for.

If I don’t pick up the phone and call people, I won’t hear a peep from a single person in my family. Haven’t seen them for a Christmas in nearly 20 years. At most I get to enjoy the cat/mouse game my sister plays where she tells me her and my mom will be somewhere so I can call them, but then they don’t answer and the next day I’m the bad guy because I couldn’t get them on the phone. While I’m nowhere near bah-humbug, any attention on that aspect of the holidays makes me uncomfortable as all hell. It’s just dumb, messy family shit that people want to offer advice on without knowing the details of any of it and it’s FAR, FAR, FAR better to just let the holiday pass without getting into any of it. I can have a great day playing guitar/video games without any awkward family discussions and certainly not the pity party.
