KFOG, But Not 10@10

Anyone else get the "KFOG E-mail" today, with the link to the Foghead Music Panel?  10 songs clips to give your opinion on:

1. Glen Hansard/Marketa (sndtk of Once) - "Falling Slowly"
...


I did. I hate the first one. I turned the radio on and that song was on. I thought I had the "Light Rock, Less Talk" station but realized I had KFOG on. The 1st song is really the only one listed I hated. A couple I didn't care for but I didn't mind the others.


I actually like this song, and really liked the movie.  Saw Glen w/ his band The Frames up in Seattle @ Bumbershoot.  Got video of him performing this with a lucky audience member who stepped up and nailed it:

Her video leading up to being called up is cute too:

Enh, then again, I didn't hate Colbie Caillat's "Bubbly" the first 100 times.   I'm happy when KFOG deigns to throw some women into the mix.  Sure, it'd be better if it was Meshell Ndegeocello or Joan Osborne's new albums.  :-/

Sorry to get to this so late.


That's okay, thanks for the research!

Anyone tried to get on the KFOG website lately? I tried yesterday, then again just now to check the football pool results for this week (I cacked this week) and am getting nothing but server-not-found errors. Hope y'all have their stream's URL bookmarked (and it's still working in the first place).
Let's get right to it.

Yep, and it's happening only about 5 blocks from my house--I'm tempted to walk down and see what it's about.

Just looked up the soundtrack on AMG--if the movie is half as good as the soundtrack appears to be, it should be fabulous:

YES YES!  Benson spun Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings' "Be Easy" at 8:45am to a good response from Morning Show and caller, who asked "Is the whole album this good?  Wow."

It was cute.

I like that Mike Doughty track, "27 Jennifers".  So true for us kids born in the 70s.  My god there were a lot of Jennifers growing up through the 80s.

Guess Benson reads EW and the Chron.  The record company's gotta be happy to have that kinda buzz to build on.

I'm so relieved to know that this kind of stuff still happens.

I liked it too when I heard it earlier this week.

I've been meaning to get over to Amoeba to get a copy of this and maybe Dap Dippin' too. Btw, they're booked into Bimbo's on Dec. 5--methinks I gotta be there. Anyone else?
