New from me at Forbes: Christmas Music For Your Blackened Soul
Tonight’s the night they light the lights on the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree and that heralds the unofficial opening of the Christmas season. You are now free to talk about Christmas shopping, to string the lights on your house (if they’re not still hanging from last year) and to start playing that same Christmas playlist you’ve been torturing your family with since 1992.
Alternative holiday listening suggestions from yours truly. Read, share, listen, enjoy the rocking Christmas tunes!

Is it too early for this? Hell no. If the stores have already decked the halls and radio stations are shoving grandma and her reindeer down our throats, then it’s not too early.
This is a spotify playlist. There are more songs I usually include on my Christmas playlists, but spotify didn’t have them available. So eventually I will post another list for downloading.
For now, ho ho ho.
