Tag Wizard here wishing you all a Happy New Year! 2016 was an awful year in general but very disruptive here at Good Show Sir. Because of financial losses caused by continued unfair competition by Chinese Good Show Sir, GSS Admin left for St. Petersburg in midsummer to be administrator for a Russian troll farm and fake news site. No cause for alarm, he hopes to get an exit visa and return any day now. After Brexit our entire staff of embittered and poorly paid Polish tag minions quit en masse, but not before pilfering all of our office supplies. And this was the year our iconic I Sing the Body Electric cover was continually knocked out of the Top Ten by flashy, trendy, more-recent covers. Fortunately it is back in the favourites, no doubt thanks to GSS Admin’s troll army. Hopefully 2017 will be a much better year. It can’t be any worse than 2016!

On to the honours. First, the top rated cover of last year:

Mmmm... uhhh... I'll just take the bus. Click for original post

Before he left, GSS Admin said this was his chosen favourite:

The only concert to end in casting hellfire on the audience! Click for original post

And my chosen favourite from the year:

Christmas Mega Post

It’s that time of year again, meaning turkey, festive ham, chocolate, hot chocolate, chocolate ice cream, chocolate in some sort of pastry, more ham and stuffing!

So for all you people, like me, still having to brave the Christmas shops and regretting not ordering everything online, here is the Christmas mega post! A mix of things here, a couple of honourable mentions too!

Have a great holiday and we’ll be back in the new year with an Old Year SumUP!
