MERRY HEAVY METAL NIGHTMARE BEFORE DIX-MAS! TWISTED SISTER 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS SPOOF SONG LYRICS, HOHNER MELODICA PIPER.
Merry Dix-mas! Happy Nightmare Before XXXmas! The Adventure Team made an impromptu pit stop at one of my favorite music stores in the world: Amoeba Records on Sunset Boulevard in LA. The indie music mecca has a vast used selection, $1 vinyls and cassettes, and a hilarious “Death Metal” section in the back left (those bands have some of the most ai-yah names on the planet!). Ementhy picked up a certain gem known as Twisted Sister’s Twisted Christmas, which is exactly what you’d expect. An R-rated headbanger’s twist on your favorite Yuletide carols. The best track is Heavy Metal Christmas — come scream along with us!
On my heavy metal Christmas my true love gave to me,
Twelve silver crosses
Eleven black mascaras
Ten pairs of platforms
Nine tattered t-shirts
Eight pentagrams
Seven leather jackets
Six cans of hairspray
Five skull earrings
Four quarts of Jack
Three studded belts
Two pairs of spandex pants
And a tattoo of Ozzy!
And a bonus gift for you: three Lemons piping on a Hohner melodica! Preferrably wrapped up all snug in my bed, while visions of… ermmm… dance in our heads.
Another bonus: Basil Farrow, his grandma (Mia Farrow) and mommy (La Carmina) are featured in Mediabistro’s publishing industry blog Galleycat.
MERRY HEAVY METAL NIGHTMARE BEFORE DIX-MAS, DARKLINGS!!
Song of the Day #269: Twisted Sister – Heavy Metal Christmas (The Twelve Days of Christmas) (We were blasting this as we drove to Hyaena Gallery — and Bill is a fan of the album too!)

I love your version of the 12 days of Christmas. Our music stores are not as great as the one you describe. Most of the music they sell are mainstream. How sad…

Glad my Dixmas statement could be a source of inspiration ;)
Mentioning Bill, I was so impressed when he knew exactly the album we were talking about! He’s the nicest guy. If anyone ever gets the chance to go to that gallery, make sure to chat with Bill for a while!
Congrats on the press with Mia Farrow and Basil :)
Dix-mas is your brilliant creation!! Everyone should celebrate it! ;)

I actually have to credit the folks at Scape for that term but I’m happy to spread it to the world…DIX!

And here’s my gift to you, photo from my Cute Yummy Time-inspired party: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jen9264/sets/72157622945412099/ I decided to turn my photos into a little fairy tale. ^_^ We wound up putting our own spin on the recipes for a wintery theme and because not all the ingredients were available in my house (or I couldn’t find them).
I also put a scientific twist on the Gambling Elephant Crackers for my lab’s Christmas party: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jen9264/4214650568/in/set-72157600846427811/
WOW! I am speechless. This is the best gift I could think of! I’m so glad you had fun at your party and enjoyed making the recipes. :)
Might you grant me permission to post a few photos on my blog? I can link to your site and credit you however you like. Happy holidays to you and your family!
Thanks! You are definitely welcome to use my photos. I can email you larger copies or close-ups on the cupcakes (my brother went a bit overboard on those pictures ^^;;).
I’ll get around to making the Polar Bear Meringues…once I find where my mom stashed the beater.
Awesome, thank you! The low-res versions are fine. Hope you enjoy the meringue recipe too!

Why is death metal in quotation marks exactly?(I’m sure it’s lulz)
“Why not”? haha.
