Christmas shopping can be a bit of a challenge for the guys in The Cadillac Three because they’re always traveling, but drummer Neil Mason says, “I kinda do my best work under pressure. So, I’ll usually be shoppin’ between like December 21st and 24th, but I really do love buyin’ stuff for my family and tryin’ to come up with things that I know they’ll be excited about or that they won’t be expecting.”
One thing Neil admits he’s not good at is wrapping presents. He says, “I’m probably the worst present wrapper in the entire world. It always comes out lookin’ like somebody just took a bunch of paper and crumpled it up around whatever it is that I’m givin’ ‘em. But, it’s part of my charm, I guess.”

The Cadillac Three – Neil Christmas shopper :34
Neil Mason – “I’m not the best Christmas planner, when it comes to shopping. I usually am pretty last minute ‘cause we’re usually gone or travelin’ and I kinda do my best work under pressure. So, I’ll usually be shoppin’ between like December 21st and 24th, but I really do love buyin’ stuff for my family and tryin’ to come up with things that I know they’ll be excited about or that they won’t be expecting. I’m probably the worst present wrapper in the entire world. It always comes out lookin’ like somebody just took a bunch of paper and crumpled it up around whatever it is that I’m givin’ ‘em. But, it’s part of my charm, I guess.”
