Stream of Consciousness / "The SF Weekly Warfield"

« on: June 30, 2005, 07:41:30 AM »

I couldn't find a link to the story, but KFOG reported this morning that BGP/Clear Channel has sold naming rights to the Warfield to SF weekly; in return the Warfield will advertise its shows in the Weekly ONLY. The Guardian is pissed.

the name may not ring a bell, but he's the Armstrong Painting guy who also was the voice of their famous Bay Area commercial ("that's three sevens... AND a 1-2-3-4!")

KFOG's 10@10 / Wed 6/29/05: a "classic" SF set

« on: June 29, 2005, 07:45:59 AM »

They're making a big deal on the Morning Show about today being San Francisco's "birthday" -- something I've never heard mentioned before in 14 years of living here.  Wheter this translates into a 10@10 theme set remains to be seen.

Why do I suspect we'll get a '78 set in the next day or two featuring Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds?

Little Steven devoted a whole show to WOTW Sun nite.

The voice of Piglet -- so that's TWO "Winnie the Pooh" voices in 2 days. He was also one of Bob Newhart's many patients on his sitcom.
