Sound of Confusion and the End-of-the-Year Holiday Extravaganza 12/16/08

I was unable to play all of my favorite records from the year due to receiving the following call-ins: DJ Jammin' Jake on prank call patrol, former Anthrax drummer/singer Joey Belladonna reminiscing about his krell war stories and finally Benny Byrd, a 43 year old pedophile that talks like an 8-year old. These call-ins along with the setlist and my favorite records pointlessly placed in numerical order below.

Sound of Confusion - The Pride of DJ Jammin' Jake

Sound of Confusion - Benny Byrd, Pts. 1 and 2

Sound of Confusion - Santa's Bringing Coal to Hell This Year

Sound of Confusion - Benny Byrd, Pt. 3
