The "Now Playing" widget in the upper-left corner of the KFOG website STILL doesn't work, nearly 2 months after the re-design.  And the revolving screen with the 5 diff ads/promos is flashing "Happy Holidays".  Srsly?

the iPhone app works, the in-car tuners work.  How hard is it to make their web site work?

A little while ago they played "Belly of the Whale" by Burning Sensation.  I can't remember the last time I heard that outside of a 10 @ 10.

Write a song called "San Francisco", get featured on KFOG. Well played, Mowgli's, whoever you are.

Meanwhile, this new Train song, "Bruises", sounds like they're trying to cross over to Hot New Young Country. Of course, you could say the same about Mumford, Lumineers, et al.

Perhaps that's Cumulus' grand plan--to merge AAA and Hot Country formats? Ya think?
Let's get right to it.

more likely Pat "musical manwhore" Monahan is jumping on the Mumford bandwagon.  I like the Mumfords but the 87 bands trying to sound just like them get to be a bit much. What on earth is "alternative" about banjos and mandolins? Especially when EVERYBODY is using them. The Mumford/Avett Sons/Brothers Head and Heartineers. Sheesh.

Groups of singers all singing in unison seems to be on the rise too (Youngblood Hawke, Fun., probably others). The Polyphonic Spree was just a decade ahead of their time.

So, has anyone entered the KFOG contest for an eight-day getaway to an unknown (presumably exotic) locale with your DJ pal, Renee? I hope DW wins.

Bwahaha! that would be hilarious.  Someone on FB noted that Renee has changed her Twitter handle from KFOGRenee to Renadio -- WTF?

Different contest I think. I did not realize Renee was going to be the chaperone for both--maybe it's a good excuse to get her out of the office for a week at a time?

I look forward to Rosalie's 10@10s when these trips occur.
