In addition to being played on a country station in Port Charles, Fl, "It's Christmas" was also added to the playlist for
WUMB, the station for the University of Massachusetts in Boston. University of Massachusetts and Boston! That's a big deal!
From
WUMB's "about" page: "The station's 24 hour a day broadcast schedule reaches
tens of thousands of listeners in over 275 cities and towns in eastern and central Massachusetts and Cape Cod along with parts of Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Connecticut. A webcast of our signal can also be heard, live, around the world through the internet. . . . It is the country's foremost radio station for folk and acoustic music, airing a mix of folk music twenty-four hours weekdays including singer-songwriter, blues, Celtic, bluegrass and more. Weekends, the station is a leading cultural center for traditional folk and Celtic music, as well as blues, afropop and world music."
Good golly!
The add list showing Jon I linked you to would have been for their main, over-the-airwaves, land-based station, so Jon was heard by a slew of listeners. You can see the playlist for Dec. Fri. Dec. 21 where they show
"It's Christmas" in the playlist for their main station.
But if you look on the left side of the screen, you will see a place where they still stream Christmas music 24 hours a day. I clicked in on the streaming Christmas station just to see if perhaps Jon was still playing there, and lo and behold, "It's Christmas" was the second song they played!
