According to the website Mollygood.com, Barack Obama may be appearing on Saturday Night Live on November 1–the week David Cook is scheduled to perform.
I heard from one of Sarah aides this morning that at the obligatory SNL after party, a slightly affected Seth Meyers blurted out something to the effect of … ¦yeah, but just wait til you see what we have cooked up for Obama appearance right before the election. You may remember that Obama …canceled his appearance on the show on opening night because of Hurricane Ike. But sources now say that it could have been a ploy cooked up by Lorne Michaels and David Axelrod to save Obama for the November 1st show ¦ right before the election.
Hm. That could be very interesting indeed, and great for ratings. Ben Affleck will be the SNL host November 1.
And in other random news, Kevin Griffin from the band Better than Ezra writes in a My Space blog that he co-wrote the tune “Avalanche” from David Cook’s upcoming album…
Also, I have a song I wrote with David Cook that will be on his debut album out November 18. The song is called “Avalanche”. You may recall an old song titled “Avalanche” that I would play at shows, but this is a new song. I always loved the title and finally got the song right working with David.
Add Kevin Griffin to the list of David Cook’s co-writers that include, Raine Maida of Our Lady Peace, Johnny Rzeznik if the Goo Goo Dolls, and Cathy Dennis (Britney Spears, “Toxic”).
