Monday August 8-it's 1980!
« Reply #30 on: August 08, 2005, 10:36:11 AM »
My best buddy from college, Steve (Gaz has drunk wine on his Lake Union houseboat) had the laser  etched copy of this Split Enz LP.  Wonder if he still has it & how much it's worth on eBay?

phoned in a 10-way tie vote, but told Dave if pressed I'd give BOS to Peter Jennings & added that I thought that was a very nice touch.  He seemed to appreciate that I noticed.

although that was before the Police, which I swear KFOG is playing at least every other hour during regular palylist time.

I still like "Driven To Tears", but liked it more 2 months ago.

Indeed, we got "Roxanne" in the 9:00 hour.

I really need to get TiVo so I can record Harvey Birdman.

I tape them. Even if I'm watching them.

Delayed vote. Can't really hear 10@10 while at work most days. BOS Grateful Dead. Wonderful tune.
Close second, STOMP!

I've noticed that JACK-format stations are very Police-topheavy: I wonder if KFOG's programming at least a little bit in response to that.  Have they brought Def Leppard's Hysteria album out of mothballs?  (I find that one to be JACK-overrepresented as well.)

Hope you weren't listening last nite: about 20 minutes after the 10@10 replay ended, they played "Driven to Tears" AGAIN!  They really need a continuity person.

And I heard it yet again this morning when my alarm went off, a few minutes after 7. That damn song must have charted at or near the top of the last listener music survey. Perhaps we should start a thread for songs KFOG is playing to death?

Which reminds me: nine days into "Local Artist Month" I am officially Sick To Death of that Luce "buy a dog and take him home" song.

I got my name on the guest list for preferred seating & first dibs on the food spread & Ali is trying to swing it.  I bet we could get somebody else in if we tried.  Anyone interested?

btw, this is as far south as they are coming this year.  No obligatory KFFG appearance.
