Today's Christmas tune: The Singing Six Pack and Slow Hand with 'Merry Christmas Baby'
Er, Johnny means Sheryl Crow and Eric Clapton with a snazzy version of Merry Christmas Baby. I think they were dating at the time, Sheryl and Eric, not Johnny and Sheryl.

Singer Aimee Mann to perform Christmas songs, Wednesday at the Michigan Theater
Yes as odd as that sounds, former Til Tuesday "frontman" Aimee Mann (who besides being in Til Tuesday is also a Berklee College of Music former student--not unlike Colonel Will) will be bringing her Christmas music show to the Michigan Theater on Wednesday. Of course she's not JUST doing Christmas music, Mann says it'll be about a 50/50 split.
Along with the music the show will sport a humorous film that will be cut up into several smaller segments including Janeane Garofalo and Fred Armisen.
Show is Wednesday at 7:30 and tickets are 25$ and 35$

YCD asks you, what's YOUR favorite Christmas tune?
Is it a traditional favorite? Is it a rocker? A cover? An original? Do let us know here at Ypsi City Desk, as Johnny is gonna start putting up Christmas videos before too much longer and maybe, just maybe if you're good he'll look on the YouTube for your song.
Johnny's favorite Christmas song is, and always has been Run Rudolph Run, written by Chuck Berry and covered by Keith Richards, Dave Edmunds, Brian Setzer, Bon Jovi, Sheryl Crow, actress Jane Krakowski, Hanson, Bryan Adams and Billy Ray Cyrus (Rudolph has a mullet?).
Glimmertwinfan, I TRIED to find the Keith version for you and it's out there but alas, 'embedding disabled by request'.
Here's Dave Edmunds on an MTV New Years Eve bash from a few eons ago. Enjoy!

YCD's helpful holiday party tips
This being holiday party season for work, Johnny insisted that YCD publish a handy list of what's naughty and or nice and likely to get you fired.
#1 In order to misbehave or act inappropriately you have to GO to the party. This is key. If you don't go, you'll never photocopy your butt, you'll never pull a co-worker into the alley behind the bar or under the mistletoe. Seriously, some of you, pick this option.
#2 Some idiot named Larry Buhl, for Yahoo HotJobs in an article said you should never spend more than SEVEN minutes talking to any one person. Great Larry, now lemme tell ya how America rolls. What if, you only like say four people you work with? Are you going to leave after 28 minutes? Is there a lesser amount you should talk to those you don't like? Seven minutes isn't enough to drink a bottle of beer. OK, you CAN drink a beer faster but if you start drinking them like that tongues will wag.
#3 Drinking to excess. If you plan on drinking a lot at your Christmas office party at least have the good sense to have someone tape it. You might need to look for a new job and YouTube offers YOU the exposure you need in today's fast paced unemployment world:
#4 So it's time to go and a co-worker is way too drunk to drive and ready to yack. What do YOU the conscientious person do? Drive them home? Yeah, right, you don't want your car smelling like churl, you call them a cab. Better a cab driver clean it up than you, YCD thinks.
Make sure to look for our next series in January, 'So, you got a co-worker pregnant'
