Auld Lang Syne - A Tribute to Carlos Hazday *Now Live*

Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind? Should old acquaintance be forgot in the days of auld lang syne?   To answer the question in the song - no, old acquaintance should never be forgotten, especially when they were a force named Carlos Hazday.  It's hard to believe our friend has been gone for over a year now.  Based on the stories submitted for this tribute, it's clear that his influence lives on.  So, let's raise a glass and toast to auld lang syne and fond memories of

No matter what you celebrated or where you celebrated it, the days shall get shorter or longer. Me being in the longer side of things, I'm really looking forward to it.
