Maroon the Shantyman takes the guitar cases and prepares to make like Deperado on everyone's Christmas season.

Harvey tries to stupify the crowd by battering them with pirate joke after pirate joke.

The band moves over to the Seaport Museum to perform in front of the Elissa, causing a traffic jam getting in and out.
