No Christmas Lights Bus Tour This Year

A number of people have asked in the past couple of weeks, so I better put up an announcement about this. I regret to announce that I won't be organizing a South Bay Holiday Lights Tour this year. ArsNova and I just got done with planning and hosting our wedding this past week so we're pretty wiped out for any additional type of activity that involves planning and guest lists. Organizing our annual tour on top of what we just went through would have been a bit too much.

While I won't be able to organize an actual tour this year, I'm still hoping to have the time and energy to plot out some routes that you can drive on your own. The routes that I published last year should still be good for the most part. Here's a link to that posting.

If anyone else feels so inspired to organize a bus tour for this year, let me know and I'll provide you with some contact info that will help you get things together.

For those of you still looking to make it down to Christmas in the Park in downtown San Jose, I wanted to let you know that I'll be performing with the San Jose Metropolitan Band on Sat., Dec. 13, 2008 from 3-4 pm. Here are the details:
