Today's 6:00 Stones song was "Angie".  Are they, like, waiting for someone to notice before they start calling it "6:00 Stones" on-air?

I'd say that's your cue!

I have literally been in the shower at 6 each morning, or I'd've called. By the time I get dry and shaved, the moment has passed.

today's 6:00 Stones: "Tumbling Dice" -- should we have a separate thread for this? 

[RGMike]

Today's 6:00 Stones was "Satisfaction".  How long before they run out of obvious hits and start going deep?

And that would be a bad thing?

No it would be great. (today's was "Lets Spend the Nite Together", BTW). But it's been all big hits so far.

That's the thing about the Stones. They have enough big hits that they might not need to dig deeper; they'll just start repeating the ones they've already played.

Is it just me, or does the new Dave Matthews Band song (yawn) sound a ton like Joan Armatrading's Love and Affection? Will link YouTube clips shortly.

Joan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTIs-TBwcbk (hopefully this plays for you, fails on my iPad)

Yeah, I can def hear it.

This morning they played the new Shawn Colvin, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHGZF8alJ9E which (to my ears) cribs a melody from Cat Stevens' "Where Do the Children Play" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPr_WQm0-UY

Just wondering: does Cumulus own SweetJack?

damn, I really hate Snow Patrol.

[radical347]

Dred played the new Snow Patrol song last night, "In the End."  Love it.  Each song of theirs continues being *just* different & interesting enough to keep me a fan.

Just wondering: does Cumulus own SweetJack?

Yeah. http://jobs.sweetjack.com/about/

SweetJack is the social commerce division of Cumulus Media, America’s second largest owner and operator of radio stations and the premier local marketing company with 570 stations. The rapidly growing daily deals platform provides local merchants—including the best restaurants, spas, salons, stores and venues—the promotional power of radio.

But weird, this badly written article says that Cumulus is now part of IHeartRadio, ClearChannel's streaming thing:

Yeah, it's strange, Cumulus stations like KFOG still have their own streaming players, BUT if you go to iHeartRadio and search for KFOG you can listen via that platform too.  Unlike, say Kiss-FM, which links to iHeart from their station website.

Thanks for the tip; I didn't know I had KFOG in my iHeart app too.  It also has KNBR, but I presume the ball games probably don't stream?
