Dred sez: Sometimes you've just gotta go. So tonight at 8 pm on KFOG Connected, our connection will be... LEAVING

Suggest your favorite leaving-related songs; you could win tickets to see Keb Mo' at the Regency Ballroom in SF on December 1st.

countdown to brain-dead Foghead suggesting "If You Leave" in 3...2..

Think he'd play "Leaving on Your Mind" by Patsy Cline?

According to http://www.songfacts.com/category-songs_about_leaving_the_past_behind.php this could be your chance to request "Believe" by Cher!
Wowzers.  Rare New Order - "Leave Me Alone".  Power, Lies and Corruption is such a fabulous album.  Kudos to whoever chose this track!

Dred is currently playing "Cry For Love" by Iggy Pop.  I've noticed a bunch of these types of during his show.  I wonder if these are actually part of the playlist or if DC is letting Dred pick a few tracks, in addition to connected.

Btw, still getting used to the nasally DC sweepers & hourly promos.  I know they couldn't use Dave's forever, but still...

that wasn't Dave that was "Mr Announcer Guy" (dunno his name, but he's been their promo voicer for ages). He's still heard here and there but they clearly want a "young" sound on their positioners. The new one I'm hearing a lot is (at end of song) "KFOG plays that? Yup, and this too:" (next song begins).

ETA: and TANC: "Mr Announcer Guy" has just been replaced on 10@10!

Granted, it's not Feist's fault that there are 17 other women who sound just like her (and that most of 'em are also played on Triple-A), but this "How Come You never Go There" song is quite boring.

I loves me some Leslie Feist, but yeah, that song doesn't exactly scream single.  Sounds like a decent album track.

Always wondered who that staff announcer is/was?  Perhaps a network staff announcer based outside SF?

Between you and me and the lampost, and my laptop, if I hear Mumford and Sons one more time I'm going to go postal. They're like the Dave Matthews Band on Sanka.

I hear him occasionally on local TV spots too (car dealers and the like).

Bite your tongue (again!)  Sanka very much.   :P

Here's tonight's Connected theme (for Keb Mo tix):  Dred sez: It's a little too funky in here, and we've got to let some out. So tonight at 8 pm on KFOG Connected, our connection will be... FUNKY

I'd suggest "Brass Monkey", but I don't really have a desire to see Keb Mo...

Ohio Players (feat Granny), "Funky Worm". or Toots, "Funky Kingston".

as to Mumford & Sons: agreed. Roll away your little lion stone already!

I stand corrected.  The "KFOG plays that/this" ones aren't bad.  But two that really grate are "the world famous KFOG...but don't ask some guy in Cambodia...because he might not know" and "KFOG...Live and Local...because if I wasn't live, I'd be...never mind."

Here's what was played:

"Funky Town," Pseudo Echo
"Funky Broadway," Wilson Pickett
"Funky Western Civilization," Tonio K

Sandra from AL's FB page was tonight's winner.  I'm guessing she did not select song #3.   ;)
