Dave Morey: "The Beatles... YAY! On KFOG" into "She Said She Said"

Well, 2 of them know what it's like to be dead.

(what? too soon?)

Wasn't Paul dead back in '69? ;)

Ringo's next.*

*Stolen from The Onion website -- just the headline, no article, posted within days of losing George.  Talk about too soon!

Shortest 10@10 evah?
Possibly -- Renee didn't have any soundclips besides DM, and this set could have used soundclips or an extra song...

I'd count those Beatles "parody" sounders as clips, even if they were mercifully short.  But I agree,
it would have been easy to include some news coverage or commentary, advertisements, etc.

Rosalie: BOS Dave Morey!
OK, love the guy, but that is just lame.

First I would note that the runner-up was, "gee, how can you pick your favorite Beatles song?"
And there is a history of Fogheads casting BOS votes for particularly a good clip.

I take it as a (unintentional) poke in the eye of the corporate management of the station.  It's
been five years since he left, and he is still recognized with enough regard by listeners to inspire
this showing.  It highlights that maybe the suits made a bigger mistake than they thought by not
making the effort to retain him.
