The party is at Bottom of the Hill with performances by Birdmonster, Division Day and Two Seconds, and yes there will be cupcakes!

Hear yours truly playing indie singer-songwriters, be they solo artists or band leaders, plus their classic influences. Today's show includes Jose Gonzalez, Jesse Sykes, PJ Harvey, a special sound-a-like between Spoon and Edwyn Collins and more.

Pull out your wallets because we'd like to tell you about a few new records that you should consider buying.

Being Jewish, we made our peace with not celebrating the holidays a long time ago. Frankly, it’s kind of fun to be around the city during Christmas- there’s nobody around and it’s all sorts of peacefull and quiet. Best part of the holidays is that since nobody is around, if you feel like not wanting to do anything for three days other than lie around in your underwear eating nachos and watching football (or, in the case of this weekend, basketball, as the big Christmas Day basketball games are the Kobe/Shaq grudge-fest and the first Pacers/Pistons game since the brawl. Will Shaq smack Kobe? Will the Pacers/Pistons game erupt into another “Slap Shot” like brawl? Or will it turn into one big Christmas movie where everyone spontaneously bursts into a rendition of “Silent Night”?) you can.
