Would seem so, at least for the last couple of days. It's a little early to assume the PD has backed off completely but hoping this trend continues.
Let's get right to it.

obscure?  it's one of their best known, I'd say -- ok, maybe it's just me

they were huge on NYC alt-radio (post-1982) but that one did not get much play in the Big Apple.  "Killing Moon" was where I came in.

Fingers crossed. He seems to want to work that "KFOG is where you never know what's coming up next" meme, and you can't do that with substandard 10@10s (the original "you never know what's next" feature).  It's certainly smart on his part, what with K-Fox, The Bone and The Band pretty much playing the same 300-400 songs endlessly.

Please send strong karmic vibes to Dublin.  Got a 9:30 interview for what looks like my best opportunity in years.  And I can post this just before heading out b/c it's only 2.5 mi from my house.  Just around the corner, in fact, from my kids' orthodontist!

Best wishes sent your way!!!!!

Thanks all!

Annalisa was actually a bit snappy in her reply. And deservedly so.

Indeed, it was a pretty stupid thing to post in any public forum, but particularly on a message board frequented by a bunch of San Franciscans.
