Oh man! This is great! Look how many people showed up! I wish I would’ve seen that you were doing it. Oh well. My own fault.

Thank you, Neil for such a fabulous idea and for allowing us to be a part of it.

Happy Holidays, everybody!

These are all just wonderful! Kudos to all who contributed!

GingerSnaps’ song made me weep with the beauty of her voice.

I was definitely feeling a little Scrooge-y this morning until I saw this! Thanks, Neil, and thanks to everyone who made my morning brighter!

This is so awesome, Neil. So awesome.

Happy Holidays!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this Neil!!!
Thank you for doing this every year!

Happy Holidays to you!

K

Thanks Neil, that was so entertaining! Kristy you were my favorite. I want to rip out my Airport card and send it to you!
Happy Holidays!

My son loved Tanis (of course he did, he IS a guy) and I must say I was pleasantly surprised by Goon Squad Sarah’s singing voice. Not that I didn’t think she could sing, but it was a really good Rudolph.

Bwahahaha … ahhhh … hahahaha … the little drummer boy by abbersnail is soooo funny, the drummer is hysterical … ahahahaha. I can’t stop laughing! I now pronounce myself ready to finish my Christmas shopping.

Hands down the best Christmas concert I’ve heard this year.

Bravo! Bravo!

And the photos … lovely.

Thanks Neil, brilliant idea, once again, job well done.

You really do throw the best online holiday soiree, Neil. So very awesome, indeed.

I am suddenly feeling all festive and holiday-like. Thank you for putting this together three years running. It is something that I look forward to every year and this year is the best yet. Wow! So much awesome talent. I am blown away.

Happy Holidays!

Thank you Neil for gathering the many *ahem* talents of your tribe and sharing them with us! This made my day. Thank you so much.

Peace and goodwill to you.

This is ADORABLE. Thank you.

Hooray!!! Encore! Encore!!

That was really great! Well done everyone!

And I am totally crushing on Redneck Mommy now. She was too damn cute!

I nearly forgot!!! Thank you so much for the festive event, Neil!

Fantastic, Neil! It must have been a ton of work to get all those clips up! I loved every song and apologize for my warbling in too high a key—I realized last night that I hadn’t sent anything in yet so I pulled over to the side of the road and recorded it in one fell swoop. You can hear the traffic on La Brea in the background!

Everyone was amazing this year.

DOH! How did this time come upon me so quickly? I didn’t record my goofy reaction to the ornaments nor did I sing Rudolph in Japanese. Next year I will contribute Rudolph, okay? For now, here’s a goofy pic of me at least holding my treasured ‘A Christmas Story’ ornament for display.

I have been inundated with all sorts of christmas music, Rock, Country, Blues, and just musical varity. But this by far the BEST. The pictures were wonderful, and it is nice to see someone is going to have a white christmas. Thanks to everyone who particpated. you guys were AWESOME.

This was fantastic on so many levels. I have to admit that I think you have the coolest, geekiest, awesomest readers on the interwebs. I love it.

Happy holidays to all.

Bravo, Neil! And well done, each and every one!

Everyone was AWESOME! I laughed, I cried, and then I laughed again. You bloggy peeps are fantastic!

Pure. Awesomeness.

Genius. Not me, of course, but everyone else who participated.

Happy holidays everyone.

And a big mistletoe smooch to you Neil for hosting the best dang holiday concert ever.

Neil, you are so freaking awesome for doing this, and Danny, your sivivon made me cry.

Thank you! Todah Rabah, v’chag semeach.

This.simply.rulz!

applause!

You.freaking.rock.

Sweet! Happy, merry & all that!

Great job everyone! I was totally not in the holiday spirit and now… I’m only slightly not in the holiday spirit.

FANTASTIC!

This is amazing. Thanks so much for putting this together, Neil!

Neil, I found last year’s back in March and knew I wanted to participate.

Thanks so much for doing this. It’s incredible to see the amazing talents assembled in one place.

I owe you some cookies for all the work you did!

Oh my good god this ROCKS!

Well done everyone

Redneck Mommy is my sister. I’m kinda embarrassed to admit that. Groan.

But I’m glad I’ll have something to tease her about this Christmas.

Hopefully she won’t sing for us though. Ouch.

Cool site.

Yay! Merry Everything Everyone, that was such a gift!

A perfect respite from the cooking and wrapping today. Well done and Happy EveryWinterHolidayRolledIntoOne Day. Wishing you all many hours of holiday cheer with the families:>)

YAYAYAYAYAY!

This is totally awesome. Neil, you are an innertubes genius!

Everyone is fantastic and so um…”spirited.” Yeah.

(And now I return to the unavoidable family goings-on.)

And that is why I love the Redneck Mommy. LOL

Late to the party or maybe just in time. I saved my concert enjoyment for The Big Day.

The Very Penguin Christmas? Weird and quirky and creative in the BEST possible way.

Thanks for doing this Neil, it’s such fun.

V-Grrrl — yes, I loved the Penguin song… and the grouchy kids…

Happy Holidays one and all! Here is the recording of my back-up number as a Christmas thank you for brightening my holiday: . Enjoy, and peace to one and all!

This is SO cool! I’m going to get nothing done this morning as I watch all these.

If this is a yearly tradition, then I would consider it a great honor to contribute something next year. I got a little choked up at all of this Christmas cheer!
