NTN Encore Question of May 19th, 2012.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York, Ontario.

Headliner:...ALICIA KEYS over Adele and Rihanna

The entire Playback East district didn't get to play this week as there was some Network problem. We got regular Countdown games non-stop. We were made thinking it was just our bar until we saw that other high-ranking bars were also playing these games. Then I realized I had wasted my time making notes about all of them--even Rihanna who was the Headliner almost exactly one year ago. Worse was for Ron CHATZ who had broken away from a dinner party in his own house to get here to play with us.
