CHRISTMAS IS RUINED

  • November 26, 2008
  • Popjustice

We were sent a pro­mo­tional advent calendar last week. It's from a quite sparky new band called The Days (MySpace) who we sort of liked but then they went on tour with Scouting For Girls so we thought 'well that's that then, the Honeymoon period is over', although we shouldn't really hold it against them because at the end of the day their songs are alright. 

Anyway a few days ago we decided to ruin Christmas by opening the advent calendar and taking all the chocol­ates out.

Oh stop boo-hooing. We all know when Christmas is. Well we know roughly when it is, anyway. End of next month sometime. Usually falls around the same time as the X Factor Number One. Alright, we don't know the exact date but we'll get back to you. 

EDIT: Right we've looked into it and it's the day after Christmas Eve.
