This is the DEFINITIVE Christmas rock song. Period. I had probably heard it before, but last week I heard it with my 15yo son -- what a great bonding moment. He plays guitar, my other two sons play bass and drums. We're going to learn it for next Christmas!!!!
There is nothing better than making someone else's blank your own song...I bought this cd when it first came out ,,,Gary is a MONSTER on the AXE..Freakster on the guitar...He lights them up .....
@metalking40 Yea do you have the song Cookies and Eggnog off of his third christmas album? It's not on the mix one that he made and I remember it was such a solid jam too.
Guys I am very dissappointed but some one has claimed their copyrights to some songs and I may have to take down Mr.Hoey's videos, I am very disappointed and to the guy who is claiming rights. . . . . .
@metalking40 Hope you can hold on for another annual Christmas HO HO HOEY celebration...I really look forward to this!! THANX metalking40...YOU ROCK!!!!!!!
I have heard his version of "The Grinch" on the radio for the last couple of years and they never said who it was till today, glad they mentioned him cuz now I can look up the rest of the stuff he's done and so far what I have found is great.
And thanks Lauratwo, I can see you are influenced by a lot of music, keep it up, I wish I could see Mr.Hoey someday. And thanks Dr.Voltage, the guitarist you told me about is simply amazing, he is cool. I thank all you guys for your comments. God bless you and compliments of the season.
PS: if you guys have any requests please do ask, I will put em up if i have em.
I would like to thank all you guys for your comments, I waited for one full year waiting for someone to put up some HO HO Hoey, but there was only Silent Night with a picture of a light house on it, I thank the person who put that up. I hope Mr.Hoey doesn't sue me for putting up his music without his permission, I jus had to share this awesome stuff with you fellow youtubers! It will be a crime if I kept it to myself.
One guitar maestro who could make my Christmas dream jam come true in a different way is "Guthrie Govan". Everyone should check him out on YouTube. Kinda like a Steve Morse medley. Guthrie can you do it?!!
Holiday is Gary Hoey blastn from my speakers me shiverin at the solos & thankin "metalking40" for this. Hey DrVoltage, yes Zakk is awesome too. Check out late great Shawn Lane. Wish Satriani would do a G3 tour with Gary Hoey..Satriani, Vai, & Hoey...can u imagine them jammin somethin like "Goin Down"...& havin Malmsteen, Petrucci, Gilbert, & lets say Eric Johnson come up too!!!! That's ALL I WANT for Christmas! Wish everyone here & everyone involved in YouTube a fabulous & Joyous Holiday!
At 2:40 into this clip Gary's playing ALWAYS gives me a shiver! I have had the privelege of being stung live by Gary at the benefit shows he's done. Amazing guitarist with a heart & soul of solid gold!
Happy Holidays Metalking40 and everyone!
Once again we are rock'n thru the holidays with guitar maestro Gary HO-HO Hoey and luuuuuv'n it!!!
Bless you all

lauratwo listen to Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society) if you like hearing that kind of solo. Although it may be too metal for some.
As for Gary; not bad, but continue to practice and progress. You could eventually be really good.
