This reminds me of what went on up here one year. On Burlington's Church street marketplace they had one store that had singing Chipmunks (a la Alvin and the Chipmunks) in the window, with Alvin's Christmas Album chipmunk music piped through the speakers in front of the store at about 120 decibels.

It drove the street cart vendors in a 2 block radius NUTS. And it didn't impress the shoppers much, either. There were so many complaints that they eventually had to ban loud singing rodents from the Christmas displays.

LOL. The Chipmunk music is definitely the worst! Sometimes people I know put it on around Christmas just to see me boil over.
