Hrm... you'd almost think they're being paid to play some of these "new" tunes (that are never heard the other 21 hours of the day).

last night certainly supports that theory.  KFOG ran a good 6-7 minutes of ads from a couple minutes of ten to roughly five after, then they played (w/o any DJ intro) two more songs both NTM & sounding very 2010-ish.  Replay started at 10:14.


That's pretty much how the lead-in to Tuesday night's went as well.
Let's get right to it.

It's pretty much every nite; granted, I prefer that to starting it 12 mins early (used to happen whenever I really wanted to hear a replay from the beginning) but it is one of those things that makes you go "hmmmm".
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
