thanks Gene!
I confess that I found it on a blog. I was baffled by the "sold out"
of the newest version of "It's Christmas So We'll Stop 2008"
the band was supposed to offer it as a free download on Christmas Day
via their myspace, but I never saw it there, and myspace doesn't allow
for downloads any more.
here's the blog I found it on:

thanks for reading my list, it was tough to do this year. My December
was plagued with a lot of unexpected misfortune (car accident, illness
and general dismay), but I ended on a good note and the Attic Lights
was just what I needed to put me in good spirits.
