Post by: RGMike on December 17, 2012, 08:50:10 AM

Mon 12/17/12: Bob's feeling festive! (9@9 will be all-Xmas all week!)

BOS1 EJ, steppin' in it.

OK, Hanukkah 's over. Sheesh. LN1 Adam Sandler.

Good gawd: BOTH Sandler Hanukkah songs.  Shoot me.

WOS3: No Doubt's hideous "Oi to the World"

Bono, you're no Darlene Love.

OMG: BOS2 Willie Nelson "Here Comes Santa Claus". That's Booker T on organ, ya know.

VHM Petty.

WTF? they backannounced Seger's great "Sock it to Me Santa" but didn't actually play it. Bummer.

Tue 12/18/12: more Xmas.

couple of "Run Rudolph Run"s to start

VHM: Blink 182 "Won't Be Home for Xmas"

Funny, when the Iggles "Please Come Home for Xmas" came out I'd never heard the Charles Brown orig; I assumed Henley and Frey were ripping off the Beatle's "Oh Darling". Turns out Lennon/McCartney cribbed from Mr Brown.

BOS the Ventures' delightfully surf-y "Sleigh Ride"

WOS Mannheim Steamroller, just on principle. What a load of bombastic crapola.

Sentimental VHM John & Yoko, but this is LN based on KOIT airplay alone.

Personally, I don't hate Macca's "Wonderful Xmastime" as much as some people. It's fairly harmless IMHO

and once again, they backannounced a song they didn't play: Ramones.

VHM Beach Boys, "Little St Nick"

BOS2 Eartha, baby.
(http://www.earthakittfanclub.com/sheet_music/sheet_music_covers/santababy_uk.jpg)

WOS Madonna's hideous cover of same.

BOS3 JCM's inspired cover of "I Saw Mommy/santa Claus"

WOS2 Mr Buongiovi's ill-considered revamp of "Back Door Santa"

This is the 3rd day in a row that they've back-announced a song they didn't play (Bob Rivers' "Iron man" parody, "I Am Santa Claus")

BOS4 Cheech & Chong. "He's not with Motown, man..." "Well, then he's with Buddha, man."

BOS5-in-perpetuity Brooooooce on da boardwalk wit da Big Man.
