6 Jan 2015: it's... Bottle Rock preview
« on: January 06, 2015, 07:41:58 AM »
Ten"Foghead favorites" from ten acts that will be playing that Napa Valley festival in May. Or so said AL on the promo I heard.  I think I can definitely miss out on this one.

I won't be around for this one either, so anyone listening, take notes!

Headliners apparently are No Doubt, Imagine Dragons, and Robert Plant, so expect to hear those and 7 others. (Couldn't find a complete line-up, as the Bottle Rock website was being wonky.)

Song 4 is Lyft LN Foster the People, Pumped Up Kicks. I've been saving that for weeks (hope I used it on an appropriate song).

Song 5 is Robert Plant, In the Mood. Two headliners down, one to go (and I'm not an Imagine Dragons fan, so I imagine we'll get a Lyft LN, regardless of the song picked). BTW, nice '80's perm, Percy.

Song 6 is Capital Cities, Safe and Sound. Sure, it's been played A LOT, but this is probably my BOS so far.

Song 7 is Michael Franti, I'm Alive (Life Sounds Like). For a one-time alternative hip-hop artist, he sure has gone all the way in the other direction. Actually, his mainstream stuff is better.

Song 8 is American Authors, Best Day of My Life. When this came on and not knowing the song, I assumed we were getting Imagine Dragons out of the way, but no such like. An Imagine Dragons-soundalike, good grief.

Here we go, a quasi-Imagine Dragons double shot. Song 9 is On Top of the World.

Song 10, The Mowgli's, San Francisco, caps off a KFOG currents-heavy set, the second one within a week. I'll stick with Capital Cities as my BOS, with VHM to The Avett Brothers. Mr. Plant is clearly the best and (even more clearly) best-pedigreed artist represented, but I don't dig his solo career in general, and In the Mood does nothing for me.

And this song was in last week's Foghead Faves set too. That's just lame.
Let's get right to it.

After this past weekend's Years in Your Ears festivities on The Bone, I don't know if I can complain about any of the 10@10's being repetitive again.
