Rudolph has to take his holiday break from the site early this year, though there will likely be more posts after the weekend. For now, I'd just like to acknowledge the folks who are still reading what I have to say about Christmas as seen through the prism of rock 'n roll, though that descriptor is becoming ever less relevant to the younger folks who remain the target audience of the music industry. Nevertheless, I press on. Given the increasing obsolescence of the software that powers this website, I'd like to note that one of my ambitions for the site has been to serve as a historical source, so if you're feeling it, or you don't have much to do because you got locked out of Twitter, try grazing the website by clicking on the date links or the genre links in the left sidebar. Since I sometimes wax topical in my posts, you might find it interesting to see what was concerning us all at some earlier time. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. Oh, and my usual Christmas present of something that makes you go hmmm....
I generally avoid signing up for accounts on the internet... Avoid it like the plague, in fact. But I had to sign up at last in light of some of your posts that suggest that the site's becoming increasingly difficult to maintain.
Whatever happens in the future, please know that I've been a dedicated follower of the site for years, and that I appreciate your efforts here tremendously. I'm not able (or willing) to devote the time I once did to Christmas music, but Mistletunes is a daily stop during the holidays. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and much gratitude.
