Crosseyed and Painless, I think. I always have to think about this one--I always get it and The Great Curve confused.

I've heard these FF's so far. Interesting to have a regular old year on a special day.

I don't think we've ever had a theme set on New Year's Eve.  AL did a New Year's Day 2010 set that was a vertical tasting of the '00s, however.

I was just researching that. Are there other holidays that lend themselves to party anthems? Other than Giants World Series victories.

I think Dave did a Super Bowl set at least once.

At least it was a rockin' party song -- at least by KFOG standards.

She started out pretty well, and finished with a nice rarity, but everything in between was stuff I've heard plenty. Possible pass for the Stevie tune.
