Boy: They shouldn't be able to play "sleigh ride" in the Christmas concert during el nino years, is all I'm saying. Frazz: Irony too frustrating? Boy: No. Just any excuse for a break from that song every year. Frazz: Oh, right. You've got a string of older siblings in band.

Sigh… intellectually, I know this warm (so far) winter is a sign of some very bad things happening on a planetary scale, but… mid-50s in the northern Midwest in December just feels so good…

“Sleigh Ride” and “Winter Wonderland” are great Winter songs, but I never understood why they are considered “Christmas” songs. Neither say anything about any holiday at all.

They certainly wouldn’t work as such in Australia.

That was always my favorite Christmas concert chart in the concert band. Great tuba part.
