Playlist for April 23, 2010

This week saw the annual occurrence of four "events": 4/20 (April 20), Earth Day (April 22), Shakespeare's death day and traditionally-agreed-upon birthday (April 23) and International Book Day (formerly a.k.a. Canada Book Day, also April 23). The first three of these events were commemorated on the show. The last was almost completely ignored, just as it was ignored across Canada...
