What Do You Get a Balrog for Christmas
(when he already has a tomb)?

I had the pleasure of finally hearing Meco's Christmas with the Stars a couple nights ago and the gears are already spinning in me 'ead. The Lord of the Rings actors need to get together and remake this, converting the Star Wars references into Middle-Earth ones. And as a special bonus, they need to include a hidden track at the end: Ian McKellen doing a recitation of The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins, over the music from Leonard Nimoy's version BUT with Shatnerized (i.e. spoken word) vocals.

For me, the whole gag would be for them to do it on the sly, w/o Peter Jackson's knowledge, and then present the first copy to him for next Christmas.

"But then, why should anyone listen to me, or should I speak, since I know nothing?"

Saw a post you made to a forum elsewhere regarding Mauchovonian Love Beat. I've got a fan page set up here if you're interested.
 
So you wanna hear "The Balld of Bilbo Baggins?" This is Captain Zorikh here. I do a version of that song in the style of Arlo Guthrie, including lengthy tagential dissertations on seemingly irrelevant topics. By the end of it the entire audience is always echoing back "Bilbo!"
