It’s the first show of 2010, and after all the upheaval of the festive shows (and helping out the celebrations of CC Chapman’s five year podcasting anniversary) it’s back to the unsigned, unknown and unforgettable sounds that TPN Rock uncovers week in and week

And now for something a little bit special. Just as I released this years TPN Rock Christmas Rocktacular, fellow podcaster  C. C. Chapman released his Holiday Special on Accident Hash. After listening to it (and spotting one or two tracks we had both chosen independently) I cast my mind to the joint Accident Mash shows CC and I occasionally do.

While it was waaaaay too short notice to put together a joint Christmas Show, I suggested to C. C. that:

…on the 23rd we could fire each other’s Holiday Special down our own feeds, with a thirty second "This isn’t me, but the other one" as an extra treat for the listeners?

And you know what? He loved the idea as well. So in the last day or so before Christmas, here’s an extra special bonus holiday special for you all.

I have been looking forward to this show for some time now. For the third year, it’s time for a holiday special from TPN Rock. Yes, here we go with the Christmas Rocktacular for 2009.

Christmas music is a strange time for podcasters and music. We can’t officially play tracks like Fairytale of New York, and so much of Christmas music (certainly for me and my family) is based around feeling familiar, which provides an extra challenge when looking for new music. But hey, the last few weeks I’ve been nudging artists and bands to see what they have for this time of year and every one of them has stepped up with some fantastic music.

And when I sat down to record this show, there was a tiny kid inside me, who’s voice got steadily louder. Christmas is coming… Christmas is coming… Christmas is coming…

So start up the show, it’s time to let loose with my best approximation of Noddy Holder; “It’s Chrisssstttttmaaaasssssssss!!!”t

It’s been a busy few weeks for me, and thanks to catching a nasty cold from attending Le Web (I hate Paris) I’m all over the shop. Still, as the cheesy TV reminds me, don’t stop the music. It’s time for another slice of Rock to go with my Honey and Tea.
