Reader Request - “Holiday” music
December 13th, 2007 - by Eddie
I hate the holidays too. Not so much the caring and the giving part, just the shopping and listening to mindless holiday swill on the radio (there’s a station in Boston that has been playing Christmas music since Thanksgiving…and they wonder why suicide rates go up this time of year).
But thanks to John Denver and his song “Please Daddy Don’t Get Drunk This Christmas,” I can make it through the holidays. Above is a video of Harold Hutchins performing the song at The Junction Jamboree in Lebanon Junction, Kentucky.
Is there a song that gets you through? And do you have epic live video of someone performing it? If anyone can find “A Christmas Without Weed,” I would forever be indebted to you.
