Yearly Rant Repost!
There was an awful lot of "Urban Yodeling" at tonight's concert. However, since 60% was from Peabo Bryson; all is forgiven.
The arrangements of the Christmas tunes did not suck.
Frankly, the whole thing reinforces the "Don't sing it unless you're getting paid" principle.

For the most part, I've managed to escape the bad music...until last night. My recommendation is that if you can avoid the drag queen in an asymmetrical red velvet dress (one bra strap showing of course) doing a speed freak version of Jingle Bells, do so.

15 years of Sleigh Ride = Leroy Anderson must die. . . (wait, he's dead. . .shit).
It finally pays off, both figuratively and literally.
Here's one group I play with knocking out Shostakovich:

I've "had the honor" of listening to an Andy Williams Christmas twice today.
