Unfortunately, I couldn&#8217;t get out the out the door to back porch in time. The last time I threw up on the back porch I was a teenager coming home drunk from a party. (That only happened once, Mom!) So, I guess I was overdue for some porch puking. Damn, dude, it hurts.

So, here it is on new year&#8217;s day. &#8220;Christmas with the Devil&#8221; is a very funny song from the very funny Spinal Tap from the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/This_Is_Spinal_Tap\">very funny movie<\/a>, Rob Reiner&#8217;s spoof that kept on spoofin&#8217; for quite a while.<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t find much info about this record. According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Spinal_Tap_discography#This_Is_Spinal_Tap\">album notes<\/a> at Wikipedia it&#8217;s rare, but both sides were added as bonus tracks to the <em>This Is Spinal Tap<\/em> CD. The &#8220;band&#8221; did a brutually funny performance of this song on Saturday Night Live that included chained elves pulling Santa&#8217;s sleigh with a Christmas tree on fire. That&#8217;s from memory. There must be a video out there somewhere, but I can&#8217;t find it.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>The elves are dressed in leather<br \/>\nAnd the angels are in chains<br \/>\nThe sugar plums are rancid<br \/>\nAnd the stockings are in flames<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Christmas with the Devil!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artist: Spinal Tap Title: Christmas With the Devil Year: 1984 Format: Vinyl 7 in.
