There aren't enough surprises in life anymore - but here's one for ya.This is what I'll be listening to while unwrapping my pressies, and I'd like to share it with you, all in keeping with the spirit of peace and goodwill.
I'm not going to tell you what's on it - that's where the surprise element comes in - you'll just have to trust me on this one.
You do trust me, don't you...?
So grab yourself some fun: grab my alternative Christmas mix here
And have yourself a very merry Christmas.

Ha!
Lucky! Found this on Dec 3, 2011 while searching for Green on Red (thanks for that too!). Gonna play the hell out of this this month. Great setlist!
Have a happy and peaceful holiday season.

for an answer to your Blue Christmas ? in the setlist. Can't vouch for the accuracy, of course. It's the internets...
Sounds too bonkers to be the porky one; and that laugh accompanying it doesn't seem very Loony Tunes.
Could be wrong though....
Enjoy, roy
Heh. Far as I can determine, it was recorded live and the laugh was some drunk somebody in the audience? Still has cracked up everyone I've played it for. Gracias!
In hopes of another comp this year I suggest
Happy Flowers - All I got were clothes for Christmas from the "God's Favorite Dog" compilation
Butthole Surfers - Good King Wenceslas if you can find it
Some guy named Perry from Houston did a wicked "I'm Having a Depressed Christmas" that was released in the mid-80s(?) on a single. That will be impossible, but it was wicked...
Thanks for all the great music! Yer rocking my holidays!
'Holidays'! Man, you're keen!
Glad you like; as for another comp... roy
Er... you are prob'ly looking for the Culturcide cut (Perry was their lead singer/muse). It might could be found on a comp called "Merry Fuckin' Christmas with James Brown"...
