ok so i happen to be a christmas nut. its my favorite holiday and if it were up to me i would play christmas music all year. however, i know there are a few humbugs out there that would rather do without ha ha. so i need to ask.....what are the acceptable dates for christmas music? i generally start playing it after halloween little by little and then by after thanksgiving its about all i have on the radio. and it stays that way till the new year. then of coarse theres a few week after where its all still stuck in my head from all the weeks of continuous playing. i know...im just a little on the crazy side but i cant help it. so is there any body out there that is as big a christmas fan or am i completely alone like i think i am???? anyone.......hello........hellooooooo........
 
Just a little on the crazy side is correct. I like Christmas music playing Christmas Eve and Christmas Day only.
 
December is an acceptable time frame. I find it annoying Walmart had a giant Santa on the roof even before Holloween. Way too soon for Christmas references.
 
I like some Christmas music, not others, and not as a steady diet.

One song that I particularly dislike is the Little Drummer Boy. Slow (drags on for what seems like forever.) Heck, at my age I don't have time enough left or the patience to listen to slow, draggy songs. Pa rum pa pum pum, rum pa pum pum....Aggghhhhhh!
 
I still have thanksgiving leftovers in the fridge for crying out loud. They just cant wait to take my $$$$ :D
TO answer your question. Bare min, Dec. If I could choose, the first day of xmas. Whats that, the 13th?
I too dig the tunes, but by the 10th of Dec it gets a bit redundant.
 
I just went to see Transiberian Orchestra a couple of weeks ago. . . .I love Christmas music also! Play it all year, buddy :p

+1 Little Drummer Boy is one song I could do without. Upbeat, happy and cheerful is what gets me in the Christmas mood...but not until after Thanksgiving at least. I would be good with 3 weeks of the music before Christmas. You are definitely a bit of a nut BEEF :)
 
I also love the Christmas season and don't pay any attention to the lunacy of black Friday,cyber Monday or any other made up name for the feeding frenzies.

Listened to Dolly Parton's home for Christmas ,Jewel,Elvis and others all day yesterday after we came back from getting our tree.David Bowie's collaboration with

Bing Crosby on "The Little Drummer Boy" was on the play list as well. It's the best. And everything sounds evenbetter after some egg nog made with Appleton

Reserve spiced rum! The Transiberian Orchestra is amazing. Never had a chance to see them but have their holiday and other albums~thats right,vinyl.
 
Anytime you please I say, you can't beat a good requiem as a birthday ditty if your a goth, the only rule should be there are no rules...enjoy.
 
We are playing here at beach for Last week and it will play til after Christmas.

Except when I'm home alone ...hen its classic rock:)
 
Christmas music is cool with me starting on Thanksgiving Day. My lady and I were at Home Depot picking up our tree the day after :D
Rock on, Christmas Man! :thumbup::thumbup:
 
Ha! Just turned radio on and Christmas music was on. I'm a humbug guy. Gonna remedy it with boneyard sirius. If I hear ozzy singing its gonna be a white christmas, I just might go crazy.
 
If you want the worst Christmas CD of all time, get Bob Dylan's Christmas in the Heart. It is so incredibly bad that it has now become my favorite Christmas CD. Its all of the old time favorites, but done with a voice that should never get within 100 miles of a Christmas song. Its awesome.
 
very specific rules in SueZQ's world. NO Christmas music/decorations until Black Friday. I am a bit on the crazy side, as those who know me can attest, and I have decorating rules for ALL holidays. The biggest holiday for me is Halloween (Samhain) but even I will NOT decorate for that before October 1st. At least Jody allows me my craziness, and doesn't bat an eye now when I cut up all of my food before taking a bite. OCD much?
 
You want crazy? We keep our tree up so long, friends start to refer to it as our Easter tree.

And it's real! No fake pine has ever crossed my threshold. We also bought ours this past Sunday and it's outside in a big bucket of enhanced H20 enjoying the first

snowfall.
 
December... no sooner.... some of it does irritate my homicidal gene though....

This is mu FAVOURITE Christmas tune though...

I have no problem with Christmas music as long as I do not have to hear it. I am with Lexi on this one. Christmas Eve and Christmas day are fine, but again as long as it is playing in a room that I am not in. Holidays are for relaxing and watching football, period.
