This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Federal Reserve Bails Out Metallica Album

The Federal Reserve is leading a desperate struggle to prop up one of the recording industry's biggest and most well known artists as its latest release continues to languish on store shelves and internet retailer warehouses around the country.

Reminiscent of the flurry of bank buyouts conducted by the government in recent months, the Fed said it will pay Warner Brothers Records $30 million dollars for 2 million unsold copies of Metallica's new release "Death Magnetic" to buttress the label, whose exposure to a storm of criticism that the album sucks had led to a crisis in confidence that neither the company nor the band could remain viable.

I had the album a week before it came out. Thank you Sweden and the internet. And yes..for the most part it sucks. There might be two good songs on the whole thing. :lol:

Course I think Lars is trying to get people to come back to them with the whole album as a download for the new Guitar Hero game. Too little, too late?

Not as long as stations are stupid enough for a nightly "Mandatory Metallica" hour.
