Two bits of audio information about the newly crowned Southeast Division champions (and if recent playoff history is any indication ... well, let's not ahead of ourselves), the Washington Capitals. DCRTV, a Washington radio gossip and news site, is reporting that the team's playoff games may be bumped from their radio home 3WT (107.7-FM) and over to 106.7-FM WJFK -- the city's guy-talk format station. According to the site, the team's first postseason games since 2003 might have to be moved because of a previous commitment to Washington Nationals regular season baseball games ... in April. And that's why the Capitals are accused of playing in a non-hockey market...
The other audio item of the day was passed along by Christopher Porter, a writer colleague who recently covered a hilarious burrito incident in the 400 level at the Verizon Center. Every playoff team of destiny needs it's own "Super Bowl Shuffle," right? So the DC-based metalcore band Darkest Hour penned a Washington Capitals Fight Song that appears to be named "Let's Go Caps." And rather than feeling the artistic pain of having to rhyme "Ovechkin," the band peppers its ditty with thrashing guitars, pounding drums and the ritualistic growling of a "Let's Go Caps" chant.
Hear and download "Let's Go Caps," Darkest Hour's tribute to the Washington Capitals Hockey Team on the band's special MySpace page for the tune. And be sure to warn your neighbors before you turn it up to 11.
