ahhhh Gavin. Very nice proclamation.
It's DAVE MOREY DAY, Dec. 19

I am MAJORLY PISSED that the player is not working.  DAMMITT!!!

OK, the "new" player on the KFOG mainpage is kaput, but (thank gawd) there's an alternate link on their "listen live" page...

I'm listening live at home but have had success with the link to the player on our internal page here from the main discussion area.

nice segment with "the big boss" Tony Salvatore, and Dave's playing Robert John's "Sad Eyes" for him -- he's been trying to get Dave to play it on 10@10 forever, apparently (which shows once again that NOBODY tells Dave what to play).

the player on KFOG's pages requires that Mac users use the Microsoft Silverlight plug-in.  which requires fan upgrade to my OSX... dang.

in other KFOG news, Tony the KFOG Station Mgr sounds like such the former deejay who LOVES to talk on the radio.  I'm sure he's a nice guy and all, but his laugh is unbearable, sounds so phony.. If you hear him, you realize why KFOG went w Webster as the morning show fill-in.  The dulcet tones, the radio voice, the sometimes unbearable smooth-osity.

heh, he sure can speak and laugh like a pro, but singing?  not so much!  ;) 

(explanation of my above comment: they had a hot mic on during the song and Tony was singing along. Hilarity ensued.)

Dave's been given free reign this morning (pretty much, anyway) but I can't believe he really needed to hear "Bohemian Rhapsody" one last time. ;)

When I tried to launch the KFOG player yesterday afternoon, it tried to force me to download and install some kind of "silverlight" patch to get it to work. I downloaded it, but when I went to install it, it warned me that it would automatically check for updates. I'm not so happy with software that takes these things into its own hands without asking me first, so I bailed. I've been using the RadioTime player that Tinka tipped us to, and it's been golden so far. No bufferin' or nothin'. (Even tho it does say on the launch page that "this stream is 70% reliable."

They're not just picking on Mac users--I've got a PC and it hit me with that requirement too. I passed (at least for now).

and she's playing Luka Bloom's cover of "Urge for Going". Nice.

Renee's getting all teary, and she's pushing me over the edge.

And I wonder how many Sleep Train live reads Dave's done over the last however-many years they've been a sponsor? Thousands. Tens of thousands.
