Ep. 82. Before the Green Album, there was Christmas CD, a special Weezer release to celebrate the holiday season, but which also in turn celebrated the band's return after their post-Pinkerton hiatus. On today's show, John talks about track two, "Christmas Celebration," and how it was a preview of things to come for the band.
