So Renee just posted Springsteen's new one on FB calling it "my latest obsession" --  is KFOG actually playing it regularly? I heard it ONCE about 3 weeks ago.

I've heard a new one by Bruce on KFOG a few times.

It has the lyrics "America takes care of her own -- wherever the flag is flown."  Is that it?

it's her new obsession?    ooookaaay
Must be the luck of the draw.  I've heard it several times, and I don't listen to KFOG that much anymore.

Maybe I missed it but it seems Ben Fong-Torres didn't make his annual Chinese New Year appearance on the Morning Show. Guess he really DID piss them off.

Meanwhile their FB page promises "complete Grammy wrap-up" tomorrow. Remember a few years back when they decided Fogheads didn't really care about the Grammys any more?  I guess Adele changed things this year.

Yeah, I hear it multiple times a day.

Do all you youngsters dig the deadmau5 guy?  While not really my cup of tea, I at least found the electronica segment (once the Foo Fighters stopped playing) somewhat interesting, if alien.

I liked it, too, but I had no real idea who he was, or what the song was, or what. I had to do some Googling afterward to explain WTH I just saw.  I searched for terms like "Grammys mouse mask" -- god, I felt so old!

Turns out deadmau5 was up for a Grammy for remix of a Foo Fighters song, which I presume THEY played first, then he mixed right afterward.  You saw Dave Grohl dancing to the mix? 

P.S. Deadmau5 lost to Skrillex.  (Wow, Did you EVER think you would see anything REMOTE approaching THAT sentence back when you were partying with PigPen in the good ol' days?)

Deadmau5 was one of last year's Outside Lands headliners.  Not really my cup of tea, but fun to watch!

I guess I fall into the oldies category. Fun to watch but I had no idea who it was or why the girls in the audience were wearing mouse ears. I like Dave Grohl and the FF but the tune Rope does nada for me.

in case you didn't know about this "Sing Along With Tony Bennett" thing happening at noon in SF:

http://blog.sfgate.com/cityinsider/2012/02/09/a-san-francisco-sing-along-with-tony-bennett/

I gotta assume that KFOG (which plays the song semi-regularly anyway) will be playing it at noon.

I heard BTE's "Good" & F+tT's "Moneygrabber" back to back the other day, and was struck by how similar their arrangements are.

Jan ratings are in: KFOG, the Bone and K-Fox all up very slightly. KOIT plummeted back to earth after their Xmas bonanza.

Meanwhile, if I hear Renee describe G. Love as "laid-back alternative hip-hop blues" one more time (seriously -- WHAT??) I may go postal.
