Announcing… Christmas
2009 November 12
Yep, from here on in it’s pretty much inescapable.
The Frankfurt Christmas Market (a celebration of charming curios and glühwein or a tat-strewn bovine/pedestrian magnet depending on your point of view) opened today, which is as good a reason as any to link to Old Dead Eye’s lovely video.
Apparently there’ll be a Solihull one this year too, opening 28 Nov.
On Saturday (14 Nov) the Christmas lights are being switched on with a 5-hour pop-fest at Millenium Point which actually features a pretty impressive line-up. BRMB are putting on The Sugababes, JLS, Calvin Harris, Alexandra Burke, Chipmunk, Pixie Lott, Tinchy Stryder, Little Boots and the Noisettes. Not my kinda thing but I’ve at least heard of all of them.
