	fiogf49gjkf0d 10 new songs were played: Goomba's Christmas - The Three Wise Guys The Mall Santa - Carrie Dahlby & The Sherlocks How Did This Thing Get In Me? - Mary & The Magi Oh Come All Ye Faithful - Twisted Sister The Santa Song or "Gotta Go Ho Ho" - Prof. Zounds They Ate Santa Claus - Steve Marshall The Doctor And The Monks - Tip Top Band The Happy Reindeer - Dancer, Prancer & Nervous Spooky Christmas - Dame Edna Everage Santa's Email From Nigeria - Dr. Elmo Probably a record for the last of the Christmas shows and more than twice the average number of new songs in a show. I do think a previous play of The Happy Reindeer - Dancer, Prancer & Nervous is undocumented, as it is the only one that is old (back to the 50's). -Tim

	fiogf49gjkf0d Good. I love Xmas dementia. Any opportunity to collect the unfamiliar Xmas tune is a good one.

	fiogf49gjkf0d I was happy to hear Gene Autry's "Santa's Comin' In A Whirlybird" But, then, I was the one the requested it. haha. There are so many new holiday songs every year that the older good ones and classic favorites get squeezed for air time more each year. For example, Dr Demento has NOT played "Condoms for Christmas" for several years now and I think that one is worthy of airplay every year. It's even better than "I Want a Blow-Up Doll For Chirstmas," which also has not been played in the past few years. Oh well. For the past several years, my favorite new Christmas Carol has been "Ding! Fries Are Done"
