10@10 isn't the only specialty program that's become more mainstream.  I'm listening to acoustic sunrise and we're currently up to five radio singles in a row

yes, absolutely. Earlier she played an acoustic version of KFOG Cure staple and also an alternate version of SRV's "Riviera Paradise"

Not at all surprised. If DC is going to f*** with 10@10, why would he leave Acoustic Sunrise (or any other longstanding franchise) alone?

Fred P asks on FB: "Wondering how you guys can give away first 5 rows of Springsteen tickets, when the main floor is all general admission with no seats."

Good question!

Webster and GG doing the deejay shtick from Groundhog Day (they even played Sonny & Cher!) was a cute way to start the day.

the other night Dred clarified this by saying "... the first five rows of RESERVED seats."

and here's Michael Franti, making "Subterranean Homesick Blues" sound exactly like all his other songs.  ::)

wow, KFOG is all over this Dylan-covers collection. Apparently they just played Raphael Saddiq (!) doing "Leopardskin Pillbox Hat".  And this morning I heard Jackson Browne's "Love Minus Zero"

Noticed Jose F gushing over that Lana del Ray song on FB and it seems to me (unless I'm missing something) that KFOG has really backed off playing "Video Games" after a flurry of "OMG isn't this just the COOLEST song??"-type activity. Her SNL debacle didn't help, I suppose.  She stikes me as a fairly worthless internet creation, but then I'm cranky.

Jose F is to KFOG music as Bob Fitzgerald is to the Golden State Warriors.

Lana Del Rey is essentially Ashlee Simpson 2: Don't Burn Out Before You've Actually Had A #1 hit.

Just posted on the KFOG website:

"INTRODUCING THE KFOG SOCIAL HOUR
It's time we get together, take a break and share some quality time!  Join the Morning Show crew, Irish Greg, Webster and Greg Gory, for KFOG's Social Hour next Tuesday, February 14th.  We'll have food, libations and a FREE concert with the amazing Chuck Prophet.  It all starts at 5:30pm at the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero."

this appears to be an "anyone can just show up" event as opposed to a "you have to win tickets" event.  I'm sure the women in Webster and the Gregs lives are THRILLED to have to share them with Fogheads on Valentines Night.  ::)

But if it's a monthly event with a rotating cast of KFOG jocks, pencil me in for AL's...

Too bad the debut event is on Valentine's Day. That said, I might have to drop by for a few minutes more out of curiosity's sake than anything else.

But yeah, AL's appearance would qualify as a 'must'.

It appears that Rad's assessment of KFOG being a new 'Click' station may be valid: Heard in the last 24 hours were Daniel Powter's "Bad Day" and Jane's Addiction's "Jane Says".

got home early today and heard the KFOG "Cloud Cover" -- it was Soup Dragons doing "I'm Free" -- and it actually took a while for AL to get someone to name who did the original.  Oy.

So Renee just posted Springsteen's new one on FB calling it "my latest obsession" --  is KFOG actually playing it regularly? I heard it ONCE about 3 weeks ago.

I've heard a new one by Bruce on KFOG a few times.

It has the lyrics "America takes care of her own -- wherever the flag is flown."  Is that it?

it's her new obsession?    ooookaaay
