KFOG, But Not 10@10

Big Rick gives an ETA of 4:00 on his FB page, y'all.

Well, that saves me the indignity of listening to 103.7 all afternoon

I predict he'll play Boston in the first hour. Station mandate, you see.

Magic Carpet Ride, too.  A must for them.

BRS just posted the video of This Charming Man by The Smiths on his FB page.  Could this be the end of the video clues or am I missing something?

ETA:  Checked his page again this morning and the following songs were posted on his page:  D.J. (Bowie), What's The Frequency, Kenneth? (REM), The Music Machine (Talk Talk), a Wolfman Jack video and then the following quote:  "Tomorrow I promise to eschew obfuscation, espouse elucidation."

Which Facebook page is this?  I just added him as a friend for this page:  http://www.facebook.com/bigrick

Did he have a more public page?

Nope, that's it. He's scrubbed his FB page of nearly all references to his KFOG tenure.

So, the guy on  KFOG right now in BRS's old slot is named "Steve Rockwell". Surely that's not his real name.

so, he runs a company called "Steve Rockwell Voiceovers"... and he named himself Employee of the Month?

haha!  I saw that, too.  Made me laugh... I'll take it he meant to be cute with that.

Looks as if Cumulus has ditched their old player and in-house audio servers and replaced them with one that's served by News Inc., if I'm reading the URL correctly. The positive: No more "missed-yer-opportunity" and Honda of El Cerrito. The negative: longer national ads before the stream launches, and one more thing that Rupert Murdoch has his fingers in.

User experience fail.

One more gripe about the new player: it takes up far more real estate on my screen than necessary.

that's my biggest gripe about players -- if I can't shink it down to a small box it pisses me off. Of course more "real estate" means more ad space.

weird fact of the week: Renee is on vacay this week, making for a pleasant morning show -- turns out she's attending "auctioneering school". Er... WHAT??

From the KFOG FB page:

"Wednesday is Groundhog Day and we plan on celebrating by playing the song that you’d like to wake up to…just like Bill Murray waking up to Sonny and Cher’s “I Got You Babe” in the movie! Simply tell us what time you wake up and what song you’d like to hear playing on your alarm clock radio and we’ll do our best to get it on.

Should be ...fun!"

"Can you stream NPR at about 6:50?  that's what I hear when I wake up."
