LOST

Anyone else as addicted to ABC's Lost as we are???
Is this show incredibly awesome or what?? It's like watching a long movie!!
We watched all of season 1 on DVD and are waiting for the second season to be released on DVD in a few weeks! Then season 3 starts up!! :))))) and we'll be in sinc!

Peeked on this article today:
KAHUKU, Hawaii - The hatch is history. That was just one of the third-season secrets revealed by cast and crew of the TV drama "Lost," who gathered here Tuesday night to mark the release of the DVD set, "Lost - The Complete Second Season."

"The hatch has definitely had its moment," confirmed executive producer Bryan Burk, referring to the mysterious underground bunker that was the set for much of the series' second-season drama. "Lets just say it was one big explosion."

"Lost" cast members Evangeline Lilly, Jorge Garcia, Josh Holloway, Terry O'Quinn, Daniel Dae Kim and Yunjim Kim were among the attendees at the party at the Turtle Bay Resort, about a 20-minute drive from where much of "Lost" is filmed on the north shore of Oahu.

Before heading in to celebrate their second-season work, the cast was asked to address their show's surprising lack of presence among this year's Emmy nominees. Though it was last year's Emmy-winning drama, "Lost" was not among the current crop of nominated series, nor were any of its leading actors recognized.

"My first reaction to it was, `Good.' I don't want us to become that show that becomes so righteous, so above everything else, that we're untouchable," said Lilly, who will serve as a presenter at the Aug. 27 Emmy telecast.

"When we started, our big question was, `Will anybody even watch this show?' And then when people started watching, we were thrilled. And then when we got recognized critically, we were beside ourselves. So, when we didn't get nominated, all we had to do was remember where we came from."

Writer and executive producer Carlton Cuse told The AP he wasn't losing sleep about the Emmy snub, either.

"Were we disappointed that we didn't get a nomination for the show? Yes." he said. "But the show has been so blessed: the attention, the success. We're not going to focus too long on what we don't have."

"Lost" fans can expect some big changes when new episodes return to ABC Oct. 4.

There won't be any more frustrating repeats. "Now, when `Lost' is on, it's on," Cuse explained. "And when it's off, it's off. And when it's on, you know it's an original `Lost.'"

The producers said six all-new "Lost" episodes will air in consecutive weeks this fall; the season's remaining 17 new episodes will be scheduled without interruption from midwinter to late spring.
As for the story: If the first season was all about the original plane-crash survivors adjusting to their new lives on a deserted island, and the second season was all about the so-called "tailies" (those who were in the tail of the plane, whom the originals had thought were dead), "this year," Lilly said, "we've opened this up to another whole other people, a whole other location, a whole other facet through which we can tell stories."

Michael Emerson, who plays the leader of "The Others" group, noted, "What I know is that we get to go live with The Others, where they learn a little more about their life and, hopefully, their mission, their agenda, whatever that might be. Maybe we'll get to warm up to them."

Producer Burk promised that many of the second season's looming questions would be answered in the first six episodes. But, warned actor Daniel Dae Kim, "I think for every question that's answered, there's another one that's posed, and that's kind of what keeps people coming back."
Cuse said the new season will include more action and adventure, and that new characters could well serve as love interests. And, he added, Sawyer (Holloway) and Jack (Matthew Fox) will definitely be competing for the romantic affections of Kate (Lilly).

But don't expect the show to get all soft.

"There'll be a lot of love. There'll be a lot of comedy," Burk said. "But we can never forget that these people are in a very dark place."

Decade day lol...

Wanting to find myself and guitar with Neil Young (& Tony) this weekend.
Tony taught me 'Down By the River' months ago :)
(good way for me to practice those pentatonic scales for leads!)
Leads are something I'm not familiar with lol but he encourages me!
It's pretty damn funny! I play the rhythm and he plays the amazing leads then he plays the rhythm and looks over at me to play the little riffs he taught me :)
I usually end up cracking up because it feels so incredible to me to even attempt such sounds and I feel so inadequate! Not to mention he has this huge grin on his face all the while lol..
But I so love it though :)

Is this one of the coolest album covers or what?
Wish I had the LP, I'd probably frame it!

Wonderous Stories

Tony and I met Jeff last night in Heckscher Park to see Wonderous Stories a 70's progressive rock cover band doing the entire Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon!"
It was so awsome! We loved it! Those guys are some serious musicians! (check out their website above!) Tony and I have never seen them but Jeff has before. After they did 'Dark Side of the Moon' they also did a few covers... some Allman Brothers, some Yes, and some Beatles.. (Heart of the Sunrise was soooooo incredible!)
If you ever get the chance, go and see them! They tour all over the world as far as I know.. Jones beach this summer as well :) Anyone wanna go with us?? :)

PS. If you LOVE Pink Floyd, (and a litle banjo) check out Luther Wright and the Wrongs "Rebuild the Wall!! It's hysterically brilliant!!
