That may be, but the man has done a Christmas album. He's a sellout.

@Munich--yup, live about 20 km south of Heidelberg. Absolutely...

@Adrian--all i can say is: :P ... seeing him here in Europe was a very different experience than concerts in the states. Orderly, dignified affair.

Sting? STING? Sting is being up 3 games to one and losing the next 3 for about the billionth time in this God forsaken place....That's STING.

Sorry...

But on the bright side, being in the playoffs a billion times is a pretty good accomplishment.

It is hardly a Christmas album. Only a few partial traditional Christmas melodies are in corporated. Most is original or recreAted renaissance , or even middle age madrigal style music and old folk music, played on traditional instruments ...actually he calls it a seasonal winter album since only a few songs refer to christmas. I like it a lot!
He's not a sell out , very creative and going in a unique direction .

Nex time you're in Munich, let me know for sure. I'll do the same if I'm up Heidleberg way.

I lived there for 6 months quite a while ago.
