Fake THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO Playlist: A Supplemental Christmas Show

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl is simply too large a concept to be neatly contained within a mere three-hour weekly time slot. Hence these occasional fake TIRnRR playlists, detailing shows we're never really going to do...but could.




A simple playlist for this Christmas day, along with a simple wish of comfort and joy for you 'n' yours throughout the year. Here's a faux supplement to The 20th Annual This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio Christmas Show, comprised solely of great rockin' pop Yuletunes we didn't get around to playing on the show this season. And though it's been said many times, many ways, Merry Christmas to you.

 This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl--y'know, the real one--plays Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse on The Spark WSPJ-LP 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at http://sparksyracuse.org/

Spark Syracuse is supported by listeners like you. Tax-deductible donations are welcome at http://sparksyracuse.org/support/
