BOS #2 Parsons.  This was a pretty great album.



I loaned it to someone and never got it back.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Hate when that happens. They should be flayed alive.
Let's get right to it.

BOS to "Madison Ave Man."  WOS to the ongoing buffering problems.

are you using the KFOG player or that WMP link I posted last week?  I'm using the KFOG player and it's been good today (so far).

no luck w any online stream URL I've tried ... drat!

Got here for the the last of Foreigner.

This Skinnerd song is one of my faves -- never used to be, but I do like it now.


Hey Tinka, you doing anything around happy hour today?  Wayback & I are going to the Masonic for the Experience Hendrix show & it occurred to me that maybe we could hook up with you prior if you were interested. 

dang, today's kinda tight.  Might be going to see the Tiger Lillies at Cafe du Nord, and doors there open at 6:30. 

I work downtown, what's your schedule? I know your show is up at the Masonic .. will you be around Powell and Market beforehand by any chance?  we could catch a quick drink in that area...

I think it would be cool to do that.  I sent you a direct message with my phone number (click the My Messages tab above if you haven't done this on our board yet).  Call me.

Damn, that's a helluva bonust track.  That's an album I had that someone never returned.  Recognize the other guys on the album cover?

Sorry I missed -- but which Richman version was it? There was more than one, iirc. One was the version from the Beserkeley Chartbusters compilation (it's the version I prefer, it was a NYC FM turntable hit) but there was another.

per the KFOG "Just played" thingy, it's the version that appears here:

It just occurred to me that the promo Geoff heard about today's set being for "'80s lovers", was wrong -- 2nd Monday in a row the promo was wrong. Maybe Dave records those in advance and they're getting loaded into the automation incorrectly?
