2 Sept 2015: an "encore" from... 1993

[RGMike]

I suspect we really are getting all-'90s this week, so that the Saturday marathon matches the rest of the "Nuthin' But Nineties" weekend. If so, it'll be the first all-one-decade week since Dave was forced to go all-'80s on that fateful month 15 years ago.

Will Rosalie have to do an all-'90s Acoustic Sunrise?

ETA: Renee said we're getting another '90s year today. I have a sneaking suspicion that next week, we'll discover that '70s sets are gone forever.  It'll be 2 '90s, 2 '80s and an '00s set each week and '04 and '05 will make their debuts in short order. Just my random prediction.

and just before the set, we get No Doubt "Spiderwebs"

TFF break it down to start.

Could this whole thing be part of a sly format shift for KFOG to Hits of the 90s?

Heh, points for a clever segue, rerun or no:

Groundhog Day clip (Do you ever have deja vu?) into World Party, Is It Like Today?

well, not literally all-90s, but it'll be '80s/'90s/'00s "classics" plus currents. In other words, your typical younger-skewing Triple-A. At the moment they rarely go back further than '78 for oldies (Cars, Cars, and more Cars) anyway.

the GD clips are easily the best thing so far.

I'm actually finding this set fairly enjoyable, owing mainly to the fact that it's not a bunch of songs that are in the regular rotation. And the clips don't suck either.

That Los Lobos tune will get my BOS vote, unquestionably.  Stay Awake (from whence it came) was one of the best albums of the 90s, imo.

I didn't recognize Duran Duran doing "Ordinary World". I was willing to believe it was Simply Red, or some such.

I happened to catch the spot on KFOG this morning -- the answer is yes.
