That was quite a collection of overplayed "classics" on 10@10. Sad, really. The show has been legendary for 30 years for a reason. Please don't make it sound like Oldies 103.7

Er, has the BOS process gone back to the phones? Does "Howard" just get to pick BOS?

Also, Renee sounded unenthusiastic, like she was just getting the show out of the way. If it's going to go like today, they should probably just cancel it.

That's good. It was totally depressing. Even her backsell was really uninspiring. Seems like she wasn't that into it, remarking only that you don't hear Love Street much.

Exactly! She should be jazzed about inheriting the legendary 10at10, but instead...a big meh.

Blech. Just imagine what she'll do to 1997.

According to the KFOG page, BOS votes are taken by phone during the show. The Annalisa KFOG page was great for fans, but must have been an, er, beast to maintain. I wouldn't want to work as hard as Annalisa does (did).

and in honor of the passing of the torch, here's the thread from AL's first 10@10 -- a 1995 set on June 1st 2009 that led off with (not surprisingly, given what we know now) Foo Fighters.

Just for shit and giggles, compare the comments from AL's first show and compare them to today's.

I always dig 1968, my high school graduation year, but really folks...they had two weeks to kick it off, and this is all the effort they could muster?  I'm enjoying replay, but it's only so deep.
