Oh yes! I was already working on an arrangement of Christmas songs, but I can do one that's just one song. It's fun to do arrangements. And with some mixing speakers for Christmas, it'll be a blast!!
 I MIGHT do a slow song with feeling instead of my usual rockin' self. We'll see.

Great!! I just searched around and you cannot beat this song. I personally don't know much or any Christmas songs (as I am not a Christian) but this medley sounds awesome.
I am trying to choose a song to play.

I will definitely have a go. It might only be Audio though, hopefully getting a new Camera set up soon and then have to learn how to use it and Edit things together!!

You could also just record video via phone/webcam if you don't have other options (and playing on playback)

So I understand it correct: video is a pro, but it's not mandatory?
