OTOH, I can't remember the last time one of my request posts got SEVEN "like"s in less than a half-hour!

I liked your list on FB but will have an aneurysm in the unlikely event Hamsterdance is played.

Bwahahaha! actually the song in that list most likely to get played is the Counting Crows (which will get an automatic WOS from me). Sideshow Bob is never welcome in my ears.

LOL! Thanks ;D

I figured. But ya have to admit, that was their last truly good song...and it doesn't get too many spins on KFOG these days. Besides, I had to throw a KFOG staple somewhere on that list. (Besides Dexter Freebish, did that ever get played?) As well as more than a few songs to make people go WTF, 'coz 2000 was full of those.

VHM SmashMouth for not being "Walking on the Sun", tho' that may be small consolation.
-
SmashMouth started mining that space-age bachelor psychedaelia sound at the right time. this sounds nice.
-
HM SM. Not a bad TOTHC.

Thought it was Edwyn Collins for a second there!

BOS Dandy Warhols, becoming an instant 2000 Katrina (2 out of 3 visits, iirc)

Probably due to slim pickings that year.....

Bwahahaha! VHM the Dan -- sorry, sg and the rest of the SD-hatahs
-
HM, but unnecessary, FFF, because it's snuck back into KFOG recurrent rotation these past few weeks. Still much better than Superman.

someone on FB sez:
"2000 -- the Sominex set of 10@10."
tee hee

Agreed. I think it's the best of the post-Spinal Tap mockumentaries from Chris Guest et al.
BOS Elliott Smith.

lawd knows I'm not overly fond of the "recent" years but this ain't bad, so far.

yes, it's a good set so far except for FFF, IMHO.
-
WOS No Doubt, no doubt.
-
Nothing really exciting yet, but nothing atrocious either.

I don't know, man. It sounds like 10@10 was skipped over and the Fog went straight to regular programming.

BOS2 to another old fart: Mr Knopfler and the ghost of Dirty Dick.
-
BOS3 the Foggy Bottom Boys!
-
BOS, The Soggy Bottom Boys.
VHM, No Doubt. I still don't understand why some of you hate them so much.

I liked the LP with the big hits -- a LOT. But I felt they ran out of steam quickly. And Stefani's solo career is a musical abomination.
-
here's a really old fart: Ralph Stanley (and the Clinch Mountain Boys) A Harldy Strictly Bluegrass staple.
I was lucky enough to be backstage at this year's HSBG and Ralph walked by and someone asked "Who's that woman?" heh.. When you are old enough, or young enough, you kinda lose your genderizing features. That's why really old drag queens work so well. :)
ETA: oops, my mistake, it's not Ralph Stanley's version that was used in the movie, but the Soggy Mountain Boys.
-

Hrm, I got distracted, but I was gonna give this a least necessary vote. But then, every Knopfler tune sounds pretty much the same to me.
*ducks*
-
WOS Macy Gray. Eeeeek!
-
sorry, I never "got" Macy Gray. Sounding like you're stoned is not a style.
-
WOS Macy Gray. Eeeeek!
glad I'm not alone in my dislike. And you're closer to her target demo than I am.
-
All right, garage rock revival representin'!
-
WOS Macy Gray. Eeeeek!
I thought this was a Muppet. I keeed!
-
All right, garage rock revival representin'!
Swedish garage rock, no less!
-
The Hives to wake everyone up. BOS4 for loudness alone. But this set really coulda used Madonna. or Tom Jones.

There were a couple of versions of "Man of Constant Sorrow" in the film. The one we heard today featured Dan Tyminski, who was a member of Alison Krauss' band at the time, but went solo after the success of O Brother.
Lots o' great movie clips in today's set. Big ups to John Cusack in High Fidelity.
-
That wasn't terrible. Nice finish.

I had no idea they were Swedes. They must have gotten a lot of Svensk Flickas.

A loud garage song @#10 after a full KFOG-centric and/or snoozy set has become a recurring theme.

Ziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnggggggg!!!
AL might not have had the knife between her teeth today, but you sure did, TC. The old drag queens comment was very funny, too ;D

And the Foghead got a little history lesson during the backsell, pointing out how the Hives were just recycling the Sonics from a previous era. Nicely played.

Radical Ra(n)tings:
It does seem like it was lifted from KFOG in 2000 (except for 9 and 10)...but, for 10@10, I can tolerate KFOG 2000 a lot better than Alice 2011...or KFOG 2011 for that matter.
Good:
A
Five for Fighting (The whininess worked _once_. Good thing this was his first single.)
Mark Knopfler
B
The Dandy Warhols
Smash Mouth
No Doubt
C
Steely Dan
The Hives (Not a huge fan of the screami-ness.)
D
Elliot Smith (Sorry, releasing the same song over and over again & then slicing yourself doesn't do much for me. At least this wasn't Waltz #2.)
Soggy Bottom Boys (Couldn't they come up with a better name?)
F
Macy Gray
Necessary
B
Macy Gray (despite being incredibly annoying and already having an appearance...this song was quintessential 2000. My HS class went completely gaga over this, sadly, but unsurprisingly. But, for future reference, two passes is all it gets.)
Elliot Smith (I guess.)
Soggy Bottom Boys
Steely Dan
The Hives
Smash Mouth
C
Five for Fighting (Probably would have been more necessary if it wouldn't have snuck into KFOG's regular rotation recently. Good song but pretty lethargic.)
No Doubt (SKoL is far from the worst they've done, but she needs to lay off No Doubt in the 2000s sets.)
Dandy Warhols
D
Mark Knopfler
