I would not have complained if Annalisa had done a Veterans Day set of some sort.  I went to Vets Parade last Sunday, it was raining, but hardly anyone was out there.  It was a little sad.
I would have gone had it not been raining (if I lived in City I would've attended regardless).  Some towns are doing their Vet's Day parades today.
ETA: Just heard on KCBS that SF Vet Day Parade is on again today, started 11am, from 2nd/Market down Market to Civic Center.  http://www.ktvu.com/news/25754197/detail.html

That's a FAIL.  Maybe the entire parade took MUNI underground down Market Street, but they dang sure weren't marching right now.  I was just out there.  KCBS is a few days late on that one.  Oops!  Hope they corrected that.

Of course, the parade SHOULD be today, but like a lot of cities, SF does these things on the prior weekend b/c it's more convenient.  
Too bad, they could learn from a place like NYC, which does it right.  
Veterans Day?  why that would November 11th, sir, every year.
St Pat's?  'Tis on March 17th, donchaknow.  No argument.

Why can't they start these parades from the Ferry Building? Then I could sit on my lazy butt and watch the shenanigans from indoors.  :P
Seriously, I had no idea that there was even a parade last week. And I'm still kind of bummed that the Giants started on Montgomery Street near the Transamerica Pyramid - I realize that in 1958 Montgomery Street was where it was at in downtown, but that's not really the case anymore.

proxy of geoff, the orig "Black Magic Woman"!

"The Supernatural", is what it is, I am pretty sure.  Proxy for Geoff indeed!

Or maybe not, I was only half listening and got interupted -- but that's the impression I had.
You are indeed correct sir.  I was listening on headphones walking around the farmers' market.  This was a super special request from me last night.  I was so overwhelmed.  I wonder if anyone thought it was Santana?  This is the first time I have ever heard this on KFOG.  I even won request-o-rama, and they wouldn't play it!

Well, clearly Santana incorporated this into their "BMW" cover! Glad it finally got played on KFOG.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
