CHRISTMAS MUSIC BINGO & ALTERNATIVE HOLIDAY SONGS
The last thing I want to hear during the holidays is Mariah Carey singing that Christmas song, you know the one, yet again… unless of course her ubiquitous hit fills out my Christmas song bingo card. Tonight, the Grinch hosts Christmas Music Bingo Night at The Porch, 129 East Hopkins St., featuring a sing-along to call out bingo songs from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Plus you can get your photo taken with the green villain himself.
If you’re looking for a different take on Christmas music, check out the movie “Jingle Bell Rocks” on the free (with a San Marcos Library card) streaming service Kanopy. This 2023 film focuses on obscure and underground Christmas music, including holiday songs from The Flaming Lips, Run DMC, Low, Calexico, Miles Davis and many more. Iconic weirdo John Waters and a host of indie talking heads offer their thoughts on this strange universe of alternative Christmas Music.
