RIP Paul O'Neill
Not the former MLB player. The TSO guy.

You'd think I'd have thought of the ballplayer first, but I didn't. I've been Georging for too long.....

Sheesh. The old guard of artists with major Christmas music ties have mostly passed (Bing, Perry, Andy Williams...only Johnny Mathis is still around, and he doesn't fully resonate "Mr. Christmas" to me), so now The Reaper is starting on the modern day ones? What Mr. O'Neill started will carry on long after his passing. It has become a yearly tradition for many to attend their concert and it crosses generations, finding older folks digging the heavy metal aspects and young ones getting some classical music influences into their systems.
Over the last number of years it has been the first holiday music we put on the stereo when we start decorating. The season doesn't start until we hear TSO.
