Subject: RE: BS: Join the Christmas Resistance Movement!
There's always more great Christmas music---more every year. Recently I sang a song called the Hawaiian Carol--did in fact have a Hawaiian flavor to it--arranged, I think, by Sir Malcolm Sargent.

Then there's offbeat "carols"---- ( which we just sing at our party, where we also sing parodies, but probably not what you would like, Mr Anti-Santa)--- like the Bitter Withy.

And of course wassails and songs that sound like wassails but really aren't--like Sound, Sound Your Instruments of Joy.

Just about ready for my 13th annual SATB door-to-door caroling. Don't worry, Mr. Anti-Santa--we won't be knocking on your door--- we only sing for people with Christmas decorations on their door, or who we know in advance want to hear us.

But we never make much headway along the street--there's so much demand for us that it's hard to leave a house.

Hope everybody enjoys the season!
