I know, I know, all you sticklers for technicalities are saying “But Josh, the Roman festival of Saturnalia, even at the latest it ever stretched, ended on the 23rd of December.” Well, I don’t have a SHOW on the 23rd, so I’m celebrating tonight. It’s not THAT big a deal – those Jesus-worshipping unwashed peoples co-opted the festival to make PR for their religion a little easier, and called it Christmas, which happens to be today. So I’m doing a modified, post-Christian Saturnalia, that’s all.<\/p>\n
