I never know the names of insturmentals. I've heard this a lot - is it during the breaks on the stream?

A BONE-afied Katrina, but not a KFOG one.

Ooops, here's Thud-der Island, a KFOG katrina if there ever was one.

See above. It's an old song by Gene Pitney.

I was just thinking we hadn't heard Thunder Island in a good while. Guess I jinxed it. At least it's not in the #10 slot for a change.
Let's get right to it.

Hey, Thunder Island has always closed the sets.
Sharks bleed teal.

That's exactly right.

How's life in Corvallis?  Everyone ecstatic about the baseball team?

I like the song, but Dave seems to play it a lot.  Especially on instrumental sets

Corvallis is great except for the 102° we had the past 2 days - the Beavers bring a little notoriety for us.

Not lately.  I think it's from the streaming that you get that impession.  Last time Dave played this was Christmas Eve '04, a repeat of a set played in '02, and it's only in the Db one other time from '04.  It is not in any of the 5 Strictly Instrumental sets we've had over the past 26 months.

But before I researched this I myself would have sworn it came up frequently.

Well, I don't listen to the BONE, and I don't listen to the stream.  I guess I've just heard it a lot since it came out.  It used to get played a lot when it was new.
