Christmas is just a few days away. Is steampunk permeating your holiday season? Hoping for some new goggles under the tree? Do you have a distinct number of bronze ornaments gracing your tree? In case it isn't steampunk enough for your liking, Robert Brown and Kristina Erickson (of Abney Park fame) have uploaded some videos of them playing classic Christmas carols. Robert's wearing goggles. biggrin

I wanted to make a big gear out of coloured lights on our lawn. However, my parents decided otherwise and used reigndeer. I am hoping to get steampunk clothes or books though ^^
heart I love that link.

I don't even recall how I wound up stumbling across those videos a few days ago, but it brought me back to Abney Park fandom. It's cool to see bands when they're with their families or just being normal people. Kinda un-deifies them.

All I asked for of my parents/family for Christmas was Abney Park stuff. For some reason, they just recently decided that I was strange. Last year I made a belt with brass-looking bells on it for the holidays. P.^

Oooh, Blue, do you have pictures of said belt? It sounds wonderful!
I asked for Aether Shanties for Christmas, but, alas, it would seem that Santa doesn't have a paypal account, and is therefore unable to acquire it. v.v However, I believe there may be some Clockwork Couture involved in my Yule, and I know my boyfriend's parents were looking for steamy things for me as well. I don't even know what I'll get for Christmas yet, and already I feel spoiled...

Oh, and Blue, you may have stumbled across them on the Captain's (Captain Robert, of course, not Amaranth) livejournal account, where I found them, or perhaps Abney Park's youtube account. I feel like such a perfect stalker, but they made my day as well!

Also, may I interest you in The League of Steam's holiday installment?

I'll get a few pics taken and posted straightaway. It never crossed my mind that others would be interested in my jingle belt.

The League of Steam's video is wonderfully grand, as well.

::EDIT:: Pictures of my belt and myself wearing said belt are now in the photos thread.

Oh this is awesome! Thanks for linking this!

I didn't ask for any kind of steampunkee things for christmas, but I do have lots of plans for after the holidays with the money I hopefully get. :3

My friends and I did however have a Steampunk Christmas party which was pretty much the coolest thing ever.
