as just noted on FB: they played that "digging deep into the KFOG music library" promo to intro... "Drive-By". I swear to gawd.  Un-fucking-believeable.

Well, it's deep SOMETHING.

Turned on Rosalie this morning to find her in the middle of an extended sit-down with Bonnie Raitt. Very nice.

I didn't listen, but I bet Bonnie is a nice person, and the reason I say that is that during last year's Hardly Strictly BG show, I got my hands on a backstage access pass and we were getting coffee at the same time.  I didn't recognize her, but some dude I was chatting with did and he whipped out his camera and said "I love your music, can I get a a picture?" 

He then gave *me* his camera and said "Do you mind taking our photo?" even before Bonnie could answer.  I was like "well, it's up to her," but inside thinking "uh, this isn't really the place to accost a celeb w a camera, she's just here relaxing, she's not performing, dumbass." But she was cool, she posed patiently. 

He forced her hand in that situation, true.  If she had said what *I* was thinking, the story about how Bonnie was beeyotch would have been more damaging.  But then again, what the hell do I know about how celebs negotiate w their fans in public?   Maybe Bonnie was like "Yes!  I got recognized!"

Now playing: Heaven or Las Vegas, which, of course, we heard on 10@10.  This would support the theory that once a song is lucky enough to hit KFOG on any internal program, it's "okay" to start playing it on other programs (which we saw with The Cure "Never Enough") and/or in regular programming.

My first experience hearing "Cinema Sam", the new movie-review chick. Good lord she's awful -- she sounds like Kristen Schall doing a ditzy teenager voice. She's not Irish Greg's girlfriend Sam, is she??

First time hearing on KFOG outside of 10@10: all 5:57 of Thomas Dolby at his finest, "I Love You Goodbye." Could this mean we'll get it on the next 1992 10@10?

As I recall, that was a bit of a Moreytrina. Having said that, I never minded hearing it.

It's official! KFOG A-to-Z starts Monday. The first A-to-Z since DC, OK?  Should be interesting.

They were discussing the "rules" for A-Z on the Morning Show today; they mentioned that it "pauses" on the overnite (midnite-6) but they did not say anything about 10@10 -- I suspect that (like The Drive and the Sound) KFOG may opt to pre-empt 10@10 this time around. Just a guess.

I'm guessing 10@10 will stay. I suppose it's possible that the evening version may not occur.

Hope I'm wrong, but my instinct says you're right. DC does not have the, shall we say, reverence for the institution of 10@10 that previously existed prior to his arrival. Has anyone asked Annalisa if she's going on hiatus while the A-to-Z is in progress?
Let's get right to it.

I just typed "KFOG" into my browser to go to the station's page, and this link was one of the ones suggested:
http://www.kfog.com/PROGRAMMING/AirstaffBlogs/DaveMorey/tabid/124/Default.aspx

I figured what the hell, and clicked it, and I'll be damned if it's not still up on their site. Probably not getting many hits, as I doubt there are any links to it anywhere else on the site, but still there nevertheless.
