The "Acoustic Sunrise" ad at 5 before the hour played a clip from Willie Nelson's "Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other."  I was so delighted when that charted Hot 100 on its iTunes sales.  Does/did KFOG actually play it?

they played it for a couple of weeks at the time it came out. As did KPIG.

I like Ben a lot, and would tend to agree.  I even hear certain songs on KPIG in what seems like heavy rotation for them now and then.

I just tuned past KFOG on my way to KPOO, and they were playing the Soup Dragons' fab Stones cover, "I'm Free" -- I can't recall ever hearing that in regular KFOG rotation.

Couldn't find a great thread for this...

Anyway, has anybody else noticed the new advertising campaign from Shreve and Company?  Gay marraige is finally mainstream -- a major jeweler has recognized a growing market.  I love America.

I'm shocked Tom Shane didn't jump on it first!

Just read (in DM's blog, of all places) that Mike Powers is leaving KFOG to do an evening shift somewhere in LA. His last KFOG broadcast will be this Sunday.

He's also been doing the afternoon sports updates on KNBR of late.  Cumulus will miss him.

Was just catching up on Ben Fong Torres' radio columns on SFGate, and read the one from last Sunday, which features a lengthy interview with KFOG's own Annalisa, and includes a few tidbits about her that I did not know. Like her real name: Lisa Parsiale. And also there's a mention that she has a boyfriend. Which runs counter to what we'd heard around here, but anyone can change their minds I guess.

Anyway, worth the read if you haven't already:

Hrm.  Considering we heard that from Irish Greg himself (and not "a friend-of-a-friend whose cousin told us..." sorta thing) that's kind of interesting.

Go check out the finalists for the LFTA15 cover contest. One of the entries is a takeoff on American Gothic, with Rosalie and Dave's heads photoshopped in. It's not good enough to win, but clever nonetheless...

They've been talking about it on the Morning Show and "encouraging" folks to vote for it.

Greg & Renee are doing the 'encouraging', Dave is being self-deprecating. 

I voted for it.

I also voted for it. There were a few other covers I liked as well.
