I sure would!!! I don't have an electric. I just borrow my brother's Fender when I feel like rocking out, lol. Otherwise, it's my old Kay or Takamine acoustics. |

Kids have to leave one of their shoes (cleaned!) in front of the door, and if they belong to the good sort of kids, Nikolaus puts apples and nuts and sweets in the shoe. And well, these days, he sometimes leaves a toy or a book in there, too.
Like this:
We do something simmilar in Argentina for january 6th.
Children leave a pair of shoes under the christmas tree the night of the 5th, and if they are good, The Three Wise Men will leave a few presents for them, which kids will see the next morning.
So we get Papá Noel (Santa Claus) the 25th december, and The Three Wise Men the 6th january. |

You have an old Kay? I have a REALLY old Kay! So old that when I take it out, people laugh. It has a curved top with F holes. Love it. It belonged to my grandfather who died before I was born. |

Okay, but I'll do it tomorrow. It's way upstairs and I'm in the basement. It's in pretty rough condition. The top is starting to come off, so if buzzes when I play certain chords unless someone else holds it down. Maybe that's why people laugh at it. |
