Standingoutsideabrokenphoneboothwithmoneyinmyhand...very competent segue from 6 Underground, I must say, but we really need something a lore more bustout-y.

And that's not the Eels, although it's closer than the other ones.

Edit: and that's definitely not the Wallflowers. :-/  Y&S Indeed.

Crap, now there's an exploded diaper in our washing machine. This set just keeps getting worse and worse.

I like this Beck song, but it's kind of the '90's equivalent of Layla or Happy Together in terms of airplay.

Renee might have picked out these songs all by herself. Let's see if she's more chuffed than usual at the end.

She's closing with two "Alternative" radio classics, Beck and now Sublime, that I still like after multiple hundred listens, but these are really unchallenging choices.

Oh btw.  Straight from the horse's mouth (on FB):

"the 10@10 committee decided we should go by album release date."

Nope. Still sounds like she's on autopilot.

I sense a good/necessary rating coming on... and a lot of A/Fs.

Big Fingers, this is a quote from a FB User on the daily 10@10 KFOG page thread: "Is this a computer generated post?"

That's the best dis yet.

DW from FB posted a complaint on the KFOG page about the frequency of the flights of most songs these days. This is my "put your money where your mouth is, KFOG" response:

No response, but at least you didn't get yelled at, D[W]. How about this KFOG Radio: if the ratings are flat or down on 10@10, maybe you could take D[W]'s suggestion under consideration; if the ratings are up with the more well-worn songs, then post some proof, and we old-timers will grumble to ourselves or cry in our beer or something.

Yeah, they're not going to respond.
