I like christmas music. Especially the classical stuff - Pachelbel, Vivaldi, The Nutcracker suite, etc...

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra was a fun show (founded by guys from traditional metal band Savatage).

I imagine it's more nostalgia than anything. Happier times from before Mom and Dad got divorced and she went bat-shit right wing religious crazy. I like the Santa Clausy ones better than the Jesusy ones but I don't hate all the jesusy ones lol.

But I'll happily shit-talk about the little drummer asshole.
