I'll be in a meeting from 9-to-11 and I haven't heard any clues today. So carry on!
As I've said before, a set of '70s "Jesus Rock" would be a swell idea for tomorrow (Good Friday) but I'm not holding my breath. And Monday -- something for April Fool's?
ETA: Used my superpowers to update the year. -- Rod
-
Clues pre-set named Ally McBeal and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Which means it could be 97 (the former) or 98 (the latter). Your guess is as good as mine.
ETA: That's what I said. 1999. :/
-
TOTHK - Third Eye Blind "Never Let You Go" - 1999
-
I updated the year.
Now I think I will bail. No desire to hear songs from 1999.
-
Creed "With Arms Wide Open"
-
Creed, unabashedly tacky & owning it. I'll VHM this I guess.
-
Aimee Mann "Save Me"
-

A Jesus freak set is a great idea indeed. It would have been a possibility when AL was steering the boat, but now, I can't imagine they'd do anything that creative. The April Fool set for Monday is almost a given, particularly since we haven't had a theme set in how long?
ETA: Last theme set was Valentines' Day, with Mardi Gras two days before that.
-
Incubus "Drive"
-
Smash Mouth "All Star"
-
Santana with Dave Matthews "Love Of My Life"
-
Ziggy Marley "Beautiful Day"
-
Tom Waits "Hold On"
(From Mule Variations)
-
Tal Bachman "She's So High"
-
Red Hot Chili Peppers "Californication"
-
FYI: Renee visited 1999 once before, way back on November 13th.

Jesus rock is an inspired idea. I'll make that suggestion on the FB.

Per Renee: 2-way tie for BOS - Santana/Dave Matthews and RHCP.

FYI: Renee visited 1999 once before, way back on November 13th.
Here's what we got then:
November 13, 2012 - TUESDAY!!! We take a stroll back to... 1999
1. Foo Fighters – Learn to Fly
2. Stone Temple Pilots – Sour Girl
3. Moby – Porcelain
4. Pearl Jam – Last Kiss
5. Red Hot Chili Peppers – Scar Tissue
6. Baz Luhrmann – Everybody’s Free (to Wear Sunscreen)
7. Santana – Put Your Lights On
8. Guster – Barrel of a Gun
9. Sugar Ray – Every Morning
10. Counting Crows – Mrs. Potter’s Lullaby
Harrumph. About a push, I'd say. At least we weren't subjected to that Baz Luhrmann non-song.

Boy am I glad I missed this abomination.
-
1. Third Eye Blind - Never Let You Go
(News: Columbine. Guns don't kill people. The NRA does)
2. Creed - Arms Wide Open
3. Aimee Man - Save Me
4. Incubus - Drive
5. Smash Mouth - All Star
6. Santana - Love Of My Life
(Commercial - Remington is the best for getting rid of your scraggly-ass mangy hippie beard; Welcome to McNugget mania, fatty)
7. Ziggy Marley - Beautiful Day
8. Tom Waits - Hold On
(Ally McBeal something, something, something. I don't care)
9. Tal Bachman - She's So High
10. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
My good/necessary ra(n)tings:
1. B+/C-
2. B+/B
3. C-/D-
4. B+/F- (due to being the poster child for 2011 alt. stations stuck circa 2001...and for being in the wrong year)
5. B+/C+
6. B/B-
7. C/C
8. B/B
9. F/B
10. D/D
Pretty well-roundedly blah.
-
Indeed, today's set could be described as a prototypical Renee effort:
Two downright awful selections: 2, 5
Three Songs being played in the wrong year: 2, 4, 10
Decent if unremarkable Alice-ish hits: 1, 4, 9, 10
KFOG staple of the day: 6, 7
Snoozy rarity: 8
Commercial which failed to add anything to the set: McNuggets

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Huh wha... what? I'm sorry, I must have dozed off there. Was there a 10@10 today?
1999 saw the release of one my favorite works of recent times... Cibo Matto's "Stereo Type A."
Not that I ever expect to hear any of that on 10@10...

Can you feel the love for Renee? ;)
A dart-throwing monkey would be able to pick a more interesting set
Here's my dart-throwing attempt at something approaching listenable for 1999:
1. Beck - Sexx Laws
2. Luscious Jackson - Ladyfingers
3. Fountains Of Wayne - Troubled Times
4. Beth Orton - Stolen Cars
5. The White Stripes - One More Cup Of Coffee (Bob Dylan cover)
6. Cibo Matto - Moonchild (a nod to dischead)
7. Tom Jones and The Cardigans - Burning Down The House
8. Bree Sharp - America
9. Mike Viola and the Candy Butchers - Falling Into Place
10. Fiona Apple - Fast As You Can
1, 2, 4, 7, and 10 all reached my personal chart.

I changed one song (#9) since i couldn't locate my Mike Viola/Candy Butchers CD at the moment.
Have a listen and let me know what you think!
ETA: Just took it down. If you want to hear it, let me know, and I'll reupload it.

Loved hearing the FoW track in a 10@10. Utopia Parkway is my fave album of theirs, and this is one of the standout tracks, imo. KFOG played them back in the day, but I'm not sure if they've ever placed a cut in a 10@10. Maybe Radiation Vibe?
NTM: 8 & 9. Digging Lyle & Kevin doing Seger quite a bit though. (When will Lyle Lovett ever do another album that's anywhere close to Joshua Judges Ruth?)
Best Segue of Set: Pokemon > Cibo Matto.
BOS: White Stripes & FoW. VHM: Beth Orton, Beck, Lyle & Keb

"Stacy's Mom" appeared in one of AL's few 2003 excursions in Sept of 2011. and when she did her "10@10 for Tots: a Kid's Xmas" set in Dec of 2009, she played FoW's "I Want an Alien For Xmas" as the post-set bonus track. Talk about your golden age of radio!

"America" is the other single (i.e. not "David Duchovny") from Bree Sharp's debut album, A Cheap And Evil Girl. The Seger cover is from the Mumford soundtrack.
BTW, I'll have the 1965 set reposted sometime this evening.
