nicked the flip again! next to post gets the freebie coupon!
Here is NEXT WEEK if you couldn't already guess...
I will be out of town, personally, from Tuesday forward and I suspect many of you have holiday plans as well.
I may as well announce now - I was not sure what to do with this place over Christmas -- but tho I don't have a banner made up - It's just gonna be open season on singing Holiday songs of your choice -- which should be fun!
But due to family responsibilities and travel etc, misc, throughout December I can't micromanage here as I know I'd want to and listen to every possible holiday tune posted - so ... rather than put the thread on hiatus I'll just challenge you to sing your guts out on holiday material! Plenty to pick from and A LOT of public domain to boot!
Thanks for understanding.... and with luck you will all SING A LOT over December and post here -- with fewer limitation rules - just sing and post when you like but you know, 4 songs/day from the same person - just like on the boards - may get overwhelming (LOL!) ... but ya know... we haven't had too much of that problem crop up so far so I expect you'll self-regulate OK in my semi-absence.
Then.... "Back to Work" with new weekly Challenges come January!!
Sound good? GOOD! OK GO! (well, wait till Monday for Thanksgiving/gratitude songs please.... and if you'd light a candle on the 24th to mark the 20th of Freddie's passing... I would surely appreciate it!)

SING AWAY! Holiday songs ALL MONTH allowed here -- through January 2!
Or a Winter Song ... or whatever.... and I'll re-zing this thing when I've recovered from our family wedding plus holidays! I may have a health procedure or two coming in January too... but I'll keep folks posted who need to know.
The palm trees are shivering As old man winter blows My garden might end up with A cucumber in snow
But I've still got the spirit And a half a case of beer Ray Charles is singing loud Christmas time is here
CHORUS.... But we ain't got no chimney On this old double wide The doors are locked with Pit bull's inside So Santa here's an option that Might make better sense Drop our packages over the fence
Bring the twins a doll that wets With tiny golden curls A big city diamond ring For Pearl my favorite girl
And some dirt plowin' tractors For my country fried boys And man I'd like a set of drums So I can make some noise
REPEAT CHORUS.... But we ain't got no chimney On this old double wide And grandma's got her Double barrel inside So Santa here's an option that Might make better sense Drop our packages over the fence
Thank you Mr. Santa Claus You're a far out dude Everyone's in love with your Ho Ho Ho attitude

Well I guess everyone's busy. Me too. I felt like singing this one today. I kinda liked this backing track. Chestnuts Roasting (The Christmas Song) Mel Torme - arr for Christina Aguilera
