Bowie's puttin' on his red shoes to dance the blues...
A good set for the first 8 tunes, with a slight drop off at the end. Date is 5/8/07.
Definitely sticking around for tune #2.

can you get the swine flu from Mexican Radio? Somebody call Glenn Beck! Ditto the BOS. I searched without success for a pic of the guy's face coming out of the beans.

unexpectedly relevant segue: Jerry Falwell, meet Greg Kihn!
-
another nifty segue from Dave: Jerry Falwell (or someone who sounded a lot like him) ranting about AIDS=Homosexual promiscuity, Herpes=heterosexual promiscuity, and something about Roe v. Wade, into "Our Love's in Jeopardy".

NOBODY sounds like Falwell. Thank gawd.

FYI, Larry's doing a One Hit Wonder theme set. So far:
Come On, Eileen (the song title that becomes X-rated if you leave out the punctuation)
One Toke Over the Line
How Long

That's my BOS #2. A song that totally rocked in concert that year.

So that's what it was. I couldn't figure how Brewere & SHipley could follow Dexys Midnight Runners in a 10@10 set & figured it must be Album Side Wednesday.
BOS #3 for Fagen
Wearing Ambush & a French wig, she's got us wild & she can tell.
-
Fagen's gonna have a wing-ding! Remember the KFOG Wing Ding? They've severed their relationship with Great America, apparently. But all hail Tuesday Weld!

we note the cowbell in Fagen.. Let's file that one away for the next "Cowbell Set" -- not sure if Dave ever included that, but when he returns (let's think positively!) we shall lobby for this.

Not sure if Flock O' Seagulls charted in 83, but if we hear them, then the 1983 Rochester, NY mega concert trifecta will be complete!

I identify both the Fagen and the Fixx with '82, actually.
BOS2 Spandau Ballet, one of the great pop singles of the decade.

I think "Wishing" would qualify.
-

Not exactly. Previously it was a joint KFOG/Bone/KNBR event, and then it was just KFOG/Bone, and then it was just Bone the past couple years. So far as I know the Bone still does it. They certainly did it for at least 3 yrs after KFOG stopped, 'cuz I still went.

Anyone else's stream start buffering about a minute into True? Mine did.
(It also died entirely about 9:40, but I was able to relaunch.)

don't worry, you're only missing the 8 billionth play of "Rock the casbah"

this URL has worked for me with decent reliability for months now:

(AND, if you use a mac and have Flip4Mac installed, the stream is completeley buffered! which means I can rewind, pause, ffwd, etc..)

and the set came down.

Ditto for the Clash.

in a KFOG-sense, I identify Casbah with the first song they would play after the Psychedelic Supper, to bring you back to reality.

So, this was actually in '82/'83? How long was "Psychedelic Supper", and when did that feature last until (year-wise)? There was a syndicated feature in the mid-'80s called "Psychedelic Psix-Pack" (6 more-or-less psychedelic tunes) that one of the rock stations in NYC used to carry, alongside a "Soul Patrol" feature (3 soul songs). But PPP got cancelled after a few months because people complained that it was somehow "promoting drugs". Seriously.

well, in the big picture, it didn't last very long. I really dug it, as I was often driving home, past the panhandle at the time, and could see the ghosts on my left on my way westward.

BOS #3 for Fagen
Wearing Ambush & a French wig, she's got us wild & she can tell.
This song is one quotable quote after another. When I was living in Boston in the fall of '95, the oldies DJ on the overnight shift used to throw into his conversation "let's pretend that it's the real thing, and stay together all night long."
Funny thing, though - I didn't like the song at the time. I thought it didn't "rock." But I was transfixed by the video (sadly not on YouTube). Years later I came around. (Same was true of the Dan, whom I didn't like until I got to college.)

I normally would have listened to this entire set coming home leaving the Giants game as I put my radio on while riding the bus but for some reason, I kept my radio on the Bone, which played In a Gadda Da Vidda and I spent over 1/3rd of my 45 minute ride listening to that song before I turned to KFOG for the last few songs because 1983 would rank as one my favorite years.

Apparently the Bone's been playing "IGDV" a lot lately -- the looooooooooong version -- and I'm not sure why. I rarely listen to them and yet I've heard it twice in the past month. I'm wondering if Cumulus is trying to re-position them as an older-skewing Classic Rock station so they can youth-ify KFOG.

they're trying to throw me overboard to the Bone?

quite possibly. The Bone has tried to lower their demos for the past 10 years, adding '90s stuff to the mix, so suddenly (over)playing I. Ron Butterfly seems really odd to me.

I'm going to start calling Cumulus "without-a-clue-ulus", based on how they're running KFOG and the Bone.

Maybe they've got a DJ who has a bladder condition. Or a big pot habit.

I have a friend who is a DJ for a radio station in Sacramento. I could joke with him that he could play this song (the long version) if he wanted to leave the station early to try and get to a Giants game mid-week. He couldn't do this because the music he plays is current top 40.
