KFOG, But Not 10@10

I will be SO glad when this damn Police tour has passed thru here (three more days, I believe). Both KFOG and KBCO (not sure when they hit Denver, but it should be soon) are playing the hell out of them.


Yikes, KFOG is gonna play 3 hours of Police tomorrow before the concert (5-8pm).  Poor Big Rick!

KFOG is doing another Live From the Archives week next week, which might imply an LFTA set from Dave one day. Or not--he hasn't necessarily been doing the promo tie-in sets as regularly as he used to. Like no Kaboom set this year--or last, iirc.

Hey Mark, did you call in on that morning show discussion about first children being smarter? I only heard the last half a minute or so of your conversation, and it just hit me that it sounded like you, then you said something about working for a start-up, so I figured it had to be. What'd you say, anyway?

Martha and I are both first children, what can I say?   :lol:

I was caller 10 this morning when Dave played a LFTA track by Plant in Paris. I was thrilled but after going thru my CD's I have the ones that I won: 5, 6, 8, and 10th anniv. special.
Anyone want to swap for 1, 2, or 10?

Yeah that was me.  I said that I am the first of three but we're all only 12 months apart so it's not ver pronounced.  I'm incrementally smarter as measured by standardized tests, but both brothers were straight A students & voted Most Likely To Succeed whereas I was an academic underachiever until college.  One brother is a doctor & the other went to Stanford to study engineering.  I then said that this 'firstborn is smarter' trend is really true in my dad's family.  He's 5th of 7 (& arguably the 2nd brightest) but his oldest brother entered college at the age of 16 and got his PhD in Germany - taught in German - by age 22. (upon further reflection I think I exaggerated a bit, he was probably 24)

The Morning Show crew all said that bit about my uncle was very impressive & then Dave asked what I did.  I said I'm working for a startup, so I get to pretend that I'm smart, but we won't know for sure until we make some money.

I swear KFOG plays this Brett Dennen "Darllin Do Not Fear" song a dozen times a day.

This Peter Bjorn & John song is kinda fun.  Now I see what the hipsters meant.

Anyone else get the Foghead Listener Survey email yesterday? Here's what I wrote in the comments section at the end:

Way too much "emo" right now. New Releases Thursday tends to revolve around songs by new artists who sound just like artists you already play (Coldplay clones, young women who sound like either Norah Jones or Corrinne Bailey Rae).  I'm a big fan of Little Steven's show on your sister station; his new music picks are almost always great. In the past 3 years maybe 4 or 5 of those picks (out of 150!) have ended up in regular rotation on KFOG. Why didn't you play the new Stooges? NY Dolls? I was thrilled to hear you pick up on the Kaiser Chiefs; you need a lot more of that kind of stuff and less snoozy "Hey There Delilah" type songs.  Some of the "classics" you play come up *way* too often in the rotation. Thanks!

OMG! The last song prior to this morning's "magical" set was by Spoon! I guarantee that band has never been played on KFOG before yesterday (new music Thursday) and they've been around for years.

Are they playing "The Underdog"?  That one has some breakout potential, mostly thanks to the jaunty horns.

Yep, that's the one. Def. an homage to 60s r&b tunes.

I'm pretty sure they've been playing that one for a while -- where's our expert?  (and please tell me there's no connection to Underdog, the movie)
