MATT DRISCOLL: PLEASE JOIN US FOR A HOLIDAY PARTY >>>

What’s better than getting drunk in a bar shaped like a coffee pot in celebration of the holidays?

If you said getting drunk in a bar shaped like a coffee pot in celebration of the holidays with the Weekly Volcano, you’re correct.

This Saturday, Dec. 20, you’re invited to join all of us here at the Weekly Volcano for Rock ‘N’ Carol â€" a Christmas party for all of Tacoma. A bevy of talented bands and musicians from our fair city, including Friskey, Bandolier and Kusikia will gather at Bob’s Java Jive to up the cheer ante with nothing but holiday jingles â€" and combined with plenty of cheesy Christmas sweaters, yuletide greetings and eggnog spiked with booze, the event will make for a holiday season to remember.

If you know what’s good for you, you’ll find a way to be there. This is Christmas in Tacoma.

Here are the details:
