Deck the Halls operates like Cluck Ole Hen, so that's a possibility.
There's a recording by Smoky Mountain Christmas (on iTunes) that also has a
great boogie tune, Santa Stomp, including some tune tied to Rudolph the
Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Comin' to Town, Frosty the Snowman, and
some other boogie stuff, and also a "bonus track" with a medley of some
tune I haven't figured out tied to Olde Lang Syne w/a little tag at the end
of We Wish You a Merry Christmas.

Other waltzes that work: We Three Kings, A Child is
Born (though
probably not many people will recognize that last one as a holiday
song).

One I remember was when the band played the
Chipmunk Song (it is a
Christmas
themed waltz) for the ending waltz and everyone
started singing the few
words they could remember.
Of course Jingle Bells works well if you need something with phrasing for
contras, etc. - again,you can encourage sing along if you want.

Subject: [Callers] Holiday dances and tunes
Hi folks,
I have 4 gigs coming up this month, 1 of which is a ONS. I'll look in
archives as well, but I'm curious if folks can recommend any
good dances or tunes in an Xmas, Hannukah, Solstice, or Kwanza theme I
can
use. I already have a few gimmicks, but always
looking
for more.
Thanx, Ric Goldman
Palo Alto, CA
