Attention Pink Floyd and Metallica fans... Monday night during "Thinks Pink" at 10pm (a weekly one hour focus on Pink Floyd), I will be debuting a new Roger Waters song that sounds as if it would have been very comfortable nestled alongside the other cuts on "The Wall." On Tuesday night at 10pm, I will be debuting a new Metallica track during the "10 O'Clock News."

Speaking of news, the Van Halen reunion tour may still happen after all. Last week the tour was postponed, leading many to believe that perhaps old tensions between David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen had resurfaced and de-railed the plans. In actuality, it simply appears that several contractual 'i's" and "t's" needed to be dotted and crossed before proceeding. Sources close to the band say the tour WILL happen, but the full details and dates will be delayed until this process is complete.

Potentially one of the most significant historical finds in recent memory came to light this past week. New, previously unseen color footage of former President John F. Kennedy's motorcade through Dealey Plaza in Dallas on November 22, 1963 has just surfaced. Up until now, the most commonly seen film of that fateful day has been the now infamous Abraham Zapruder amateur 8mm film. The new footage is only 39 seconds long and runs out just before the actual assassination itself, but it affords historians a very good quality sweep of the people who were in the crowd that afternoon, and from a different angle than the Zapruder film. Many feel that the official Warren Commission findings of a single gunman, acting alone were incorrect and incomplete. Numerous books, including the excellent "High Treason" (which Oliver Stone consulted during the making of the movie "JFK") make a compelling case for a conspiracy plot and cover-up involving numerous people and/or organizations. We may never know the full truth about that terrible sequence in time, but now there is another possibly important piece of evidence that has emerged that might shed some new light on the case. To see it for yourself, go to www.jfk.org. Other assorted snippets of film from that day can be seen at www.jfk-online.com/films.html. Having been given a DVD copy to view of the digitally restored and enhanced Zapruder film via his surviving family several years ago, it does seems questionable as to whether a solitary gunman could have caused so much damage in such a short span of time. That DVD has now been publicly released and is available through MPI Home Video under the title "Image Of An Assassination." A word of caution is in order though... the footage has been so vastly improved and enhanced, the impact of viewing it is highly disturbing. I personally was very badly shaken for several hours after seeing it. The gruesome realization that you are witnessing a brutal, uncensored murder is quite traumatizing.
