The Battle goes on...

It's getting down to the wire on the Battle for Ozzfest on MTV.
If you haven't seen the show, check it out while you still can - Monday night's at 10:30 EST.
A number of bands are competing for a spot on the main stage of this year's Ozzfest tour.
Of course, I've got to pull for the local North Carolina band, Cynder.
They've also (as of 12/31/04) changed their name to CYN - which stands for Curse Your Name.

With the new season of The Osbournes starting on Jan. 17, it looks like the Battle will be over on Jan. 10.
CYN is now one of three bands left - tonight they'll compete on the main stage.

Tomorrow, Jan. 4, I'll head on over to Asheboro to Ryan's house to check out the band's practice and have a chat with the guys about the show.

Other news

According to good ole Billboard online, Sheryl Crow has plans to release two albums this year.
One is planned to be a pop record and the other an artist record - which means that radio will love the pop record while fans will love the artist record and get tired of hearing the pop one.
