A bunch of ‘straddlers around the world have already hung out at magical, mystical, and all-around festive holigay meet-ups and parties, but the fun is nowhere near over! There’s holigay parties ’til the end of December, and if there’s one in your city, I dare you to play this mix. I also dare you to play it on Christmas morning, on Christmas evening, on the way home for the holidays, the day after your family celebration while you’re eating leftovers, next time you drink any kind of seasonal cocktail or beer with a few of your bros, and when you’re bored. I don’t mean to play my own drum over here, but it’s kind of just that good.
