Big night tonight.....

Leafs-Flyers, Game 4. BIG GAME! I can safely say that I will be incommunicado from 7 - 10 PM.

Before the song list is revealed, a cool note from The Digital Bits:

In other news today, the Lord of the Rings fan site The One Ring.net has posted a new interview with New Line's Senior Vice President of Marketing, Matt Lasorsa, about plans for the Return of the King: Extended Edition. Matt's a good guy - we've met him many times before - and this is a good (if brief) interview in that you get some solid facts about future Rings DVD plans. Definitely check it out if you're interested in the 4-disc DVD. The gist is that the 4-disc version is due "just before Christmas 2004". Look for the extended version to be over four hours long, featuring extended scenes and dialogue, as well as new scenes involving Faramir, the fate of Saurman, the Mouth of Sauron at the Black Gate and more. As far as a possible "Mega Box Set" of the extended versions of the whole Trilogy, it's at least 2 years away, and will likely feature all-new content created with Peter Jackson's participation.

Having said all this, I'm still buying the theatrical release on May 25th. I can't wait until November/December to renew my relationships with the LOTR characters.

The latest song list:

Sussudio (an easy one to start you off) - Phil Collins
Paranoimia - Art of Noise (the Max Headroom tune)
Hey Ladies - Beastie Boys
Oops Up - SNAP!
Brilliant Disguise - The Boss
Metal Queen (today's Canadian content) - Lee Aaron (thought this on would be tougher)
Silent Lucidity - Queensryche (4 stars on this one Amy)
Cherish - I was thinking of Madonna's version, but Al and Amy named the Kool and the Gang version, so points for that answer
Pump Up The Volume - MARRS
How Soon Is Now? - The Smiths
