CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON THE RADIO

I love Christmas music probably more than most of you ... you should see my collection! But I love it only in a very distinct time window. [See below.]

Dallas' KVIL-FM asked for my input about Christmas Music and I gave it to them:

Playing Christmas music before Thanksgiving worked in 2001 ONLY! There was a very good reason for it THAT YEAR ONLY! Thanks to whoever thought of doing it!
But the last few years KVIL-FM has appeared to enjoy PISSING OFF listeners with early Christmas music. You've even used the same grumpy phone call several times and in years after the original year she called!
How about doing the old-timey thing and gradually increasing the Christmas Music/per hour starting the day after Thanksgiving and ending with the Grand Finale of all Christmas music Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!

Based on a message at the end of the survey they have no intentions to listening to me: Don't be surprised if they start Christmas music 11/14/08. PLUS: that's the day I could win a Christmas Sock Gift for participating in the survey. WHAT!?

I absolutely LOVE the Christmas music on KVIL and can't wait for them to start playing it every year. I HATE the... let's throw in a couple of Christmas song an hour thing. KVIL will always have me as a listener thanks in part to their Christmas music tradition. I hope they will continue it for years to come.
