Not my favorite theme by a long shot, but I'll listen at 10:00 just the same.

ETA: Listening now...

Taking a page from AL's playbook, and doing multiple holiday sets?  Is KFOG's Koncert 4 Kidz happening this week?

Looks like a pretty finger-snappin' lineup of tunes, but it's a tad early so I'll put this one on hold.

It did sound like Swing was just the beginning. Oy. Though he's dug up some good stuff for this one so far, with two songs I've never heard before, along with some less-heard versions of "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" and hmmm, I've already forgotten the first song, but it was Dean Martinerrr, Frank Sinatra.

No worries. Not much to say during the show anyway.

But yow, what's this drunk version of "Jingle Bells"? Some pretty poor performances, and extraordinarily loud tenor solo in the channel. This gets my Weirdest of Set award.

How do you see the setlist again? I've done it before, but can't remember the magic incantation.

just click and drag over the empty space, as if you were trying to copy-and-paste something that's not there, and it will magically appear.

I tried that, but no magic happened. I think there are two different interfaces to get to the player, and I'm on the wrong one.

Yeah, it doesn't exist on the Mixcloud page that you get if you click thru from the email they send out. You have to go to the SoundwavesTV page (http://soundwavestv.com/category/1010/) and then click to the individual set page from there, and you'll be good to go.
Let's get right to it.

Btw, I just listened to this set -- did anyone else catch Dino singing "Rudy, the red-dicked reindeer, you'll go down in history" at the end of that song? What a scamp, that Dino...

That works!  Thanks.
