4th Gig

Hey there, guys and dolls. I got a little announcement for everyone - I'm releasin' a holiday album!

[He holds up the album itself, shrugging with a smile.]

I had one in the works back home anyway, so I figured what the hay, toss a few Hearth's Warmin' references in there and we're golden. Plus, there ain't no fussin' with lawyers here.

[In other words, all the copyrighted carols. A lot of Hearth's Warming carols sound very similar to Christmas music anyway, and he felt it was more important to see that his friends from Earth got to have a little bit of the holiday tradition here. There's a few Hearth's Warming favorites thrown in there too, no worries.]

I was plannin' on announcin' it last week, doin' a little promotion, but...I got busy. [His ears flatten. He does not think he has to explain to THESE people how bad last week was.] Anyway, the shipments're in from Canterlot now, so you can pick yours up right here in town!

[Not Liz, Bertie, or Flare though. They'll be receiving free copies.]

... what format, though?

Took me a while to figure that out, Equestrian technology's all over the place. Turns out vinyl AND CDs are both kinda a thing. We're just doin' CDs, though, ain't that big a release yet.

An album?

[She racks her mind for similar words, and falls short. Forgive her Harvey, she has no concept of modern music.]

[millionbitpipes]

Yeah, it's...see, you got this little disc, you put it in a player, and it'll play music.

Is it okay if I throw a couple of suggestions onto the fire? You know, just to prevent them from all being hoary old chestnuts.

[millionbitpipes]

Sure, if you want.

I got so sick of Santa Baby it hurts, and a dude singing it and playing it COMPLETELY STRAIGHT - well, okay, not the best choice of words there - would make my day.

I can also throw you the words to some traditional Spanish stuff and to some joke songs.
