Happy New Year! Can you believe it’s freakin 2010?!
A bit of Auld Lang Syne from one of my favorite German punk bands from Düsseldorf – Die Toten Hosen. The band’s name literally means “The Dead Pants”, although the phrase “tote Hose” is a German expression meaning “nothing going on” or “boring”.
Die Toten Hosen gave a few new lyrics to the traditional song, and it reminds me of my bottle of Taittinger Brut Champagner Rosé from last night:
Let’s have a drink or maybe two
or maybe three or four
or five or six or seven or eight
or maybe even more.
Rock on my friends! Wishing you all miracles and bliss for 2010. And now, without further adieu. DIE TOTEN HOSEN!!! Turn it UP.

Reminds me of my night too… and perhaps explains this headache I’ve been nursing all day. Happy New Year! Love you!
