Pretty much every time my friends hold a party, I'm asked to get the music - implied "make a mixtape, extra long". But nobody actually, explicitly says "don't bring a live show". So why not, if I could?
This is the "let's pretend I was able to pull all kinds of strings and bring the most awesomest live entertainment for the 2008/2009 New Year's party instead of just another shitty mixtape". A couple weeks belated, but hey. Think of my hangover.
Oh, and I set myself one limitation - no dead people. I'm just not a very good necromancer. Otherwise the ghosts of Elliott Smith and Jeff Buckley might have made their way into the lineup.
