Ray Stevens: Christmas at the CabaRay...

Hello once again!! A couple of days ago Ray Stevens uploaded an advertisement on YouTube promoting the upcoming Christmas season. The CabaRay is going to be trimmed in Christmas decorations beginning in early November with a Christmas-themed series of concerts throughout the rest of the calendar year. I don't know if the concerts will be wall-to-wall Christmas songs or if there will be 80 percent Christmas songs and 20 percent non-Christmas. The video description uses the phrases 'Christmas at the CabaRay' as well as 'CabaRay Christmas'. Ray himself makes mention of those phrases as well and so my guess is the official name for the series of concerts will either be 'Christmas at the CabaRay' or 'CabaRay Christmas'.



Songs performed during these concerts are likely to come from his three Christmas CDs: 1997's "Ray Stevens Christmas: Through a Different Window", 2009's "Ray Stevens Christmas", and 2016's "Mary and Joseph and the Baby and Me". Some of the songs on those CDs are: "Bad Little Boy", "The Little Drummer Boy Next Door", "All I Want For Christmas is You", "Greatest Little Christmas Ever Wuz", "Blue Christmas", "Santa Claus is Watching You", "Jingle Bells", "Let It Snow", "White Christmas", "Deck The Halls With Teardrops", "Christmas Bells in the Steeple", "Merry Christmas", "Christmas Will Be Just Another Lonely Day", "Redneck Christmas", and "Claws (A Cat's Letter to Santa)".
