A Rock ‘N’ Roll Christmas (w/ Ken Kessler)

What’s up, dudes? I’ve got Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas here with me to talk about the fever dream “A Rock ‘N’ Roll Christmas!” Yes, it’s the love child of “It’s a Wonderful Life” and ‘Weekend Update’… and Christmas rock.

Dennis Miller hosts this event with interspersed segments of George Bailey trying to bring rock to Bedford Falls. Of course, in a show predicated on a pirate signal hacking a ‘traditional’ Christmas show, there has to be music. Subsequently, several bands provide holiday entertainment, including Eddie Money, Little Richards, and the Fabulous Thunderbirds!

In the meantime, clips of Ernest Saves Christmas are intercut over Bryan Adams. Several acts, like Jimi Hendrix and Elvis, are cut short to make room for the It’s a Wonderful Life parody. Pat Benetar provides a killer song via satellite, and popular videos from MTV by U2, Run DMC, and Buster Poindexter fill out the ranks.

The Beach Boys? Yep. The Beatles? Check. Oingo Boingo? Only on a theater marquis. So grab your leather jacket, spin some records, and jam out to this episode on ‘A Rock ‘N’ Roll Christmas!”
