KFOG, But Not 10@10
« Reply #555 on: March 06, 2007, 07:34:51 AM »
This morning around 6:30 KFOG played that Oasis "all around the world" song which is now famous as the AT&T commercial. I don't think they ever played it when it was current.

I heard it a handful of times, but probably not during the Morning Show.

I was thinking this morning songs that are featured in current ads should be banned!

They interviewed JCM last week about "Our Country" and his explanation of why he sold it to Chevy (and how it's NOT a "rah-rah jingoistic" song) was reasoned and convincing, IMHO.

I'm sure there's plenty of holes in my logic, but I feel like Chevy and AT&T are getting enough of my brain without having to hear it on a popular song.  For me, since I don't like the Oasis song anyway, it's pretty unimportant, but I'm sure there could be others I'd feel more conflicted about.

I've heard it a few times during the afternoon hours.

Just heard a promo this morning--KFOG is going to give us another go-round of that venerable Arbitron ratings-boosting chestnut....

A to Z.

They're promising thousands of songs, deep album tracks, lots of stuff we don't usually hear, blahblahblah... Hopefully it'll be a good bit deeper than the last couple of A to Zs they've tried to foist off, but this is the first one post-Susquehanna, so we'll see. The PD hasn't changed, so the ownership may not make much of a diff.

It starts next week--March 22, I believe.

Does KFOG work A to Z into 10@10? I don't remember if they did before.

nope... although Dave might do a "by the numbers" set to kick things off (songs with numbers in the titles).

KFOG's been bringing back a lot of late '90s/early '00s songs lately: here's Matt Nathanson's "Laid" cover, and I've recently heard Blues Traveler's "Back in the Day" and Phish's big KFOG hit from earlier this decade (I'm blanking on the title).

Love the pic on the KFOG website of Stevie Nicks and Chris Isaak -- she looks younger than him!  Guess drinking that goat blood keeps ya young :wink:

Just noted in the weekly KFOG e-mail that Tim Finn will be guesting on the Morning Show tomorrow. Hope it's not between 8:30 and 9, when I'll likely be on the underground, which means it probably will be exactly during those hours.

I'm sure Dave is giddy about the prospect--the Finns are HUGE Davefaves.

Betcha he does "Hit the Ground Running". Then that cranky Foghead who complained it was "that song you ALWAYS play" can call in.

He came on jsut before 8, and played a new song & then "Persausion".  I thought his voice sounded horrible, like he hadn't even bothered to warm up.  Dave was able to contain his giddiness for the most part; Greg, Peter & Renee all did equal parts of the conversation.
