THE MIKE ERRICO HOLIDAY SHOW Thursday, Dec. 20th, 7:30p Joe’s Pub, 425 Lafayette St., NYC CLICK HERE FOR SHOW INFO Dave Scalia: Drums Jessie Reagen Mann: Cello Special Guest: Krysta Rodriguez The Holiday Show is a highlight in a year that has been filled with them: I’ve been so grateful to play for you, live, on TV and in theaters. And this year I became a dad to a beautiful baby girl, Catherine. She gets the hiccups now and then, and seems to tolerate me hovering over her bassinet. It’s been outrageous. 2013 will feature some major new work that I am very excited to share with you. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves… In keeping with a long-standing Holiday Show tradition, I’ll distribute gifts, known as “Holiday Omens.” (What are Holiday Omens? CLICK HERE.) Recipients will be invited to interpret the Omen’s personal significance in the coming year. Hilarious, poignant or cautionary, they have proven to be alarmingly accurate. Let’s have a party. I’m looking forward to seeing you there. – M Facebook Band Page The community continues growing, and is updated regularly with great new music, special deals, and, oh yes, Web insanity.
