less-than-"Good Stuff", IMHO, from the B-52s.

almost seems strange to hear "Breaking The Girl" without the de riguer (on KFOG anyway) Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas clip first.

BOS2 BNLs, "Be My Yoko Ono" -- which got no KFOG play at the time, despite Peter Finch's love of the band.

It can be my BOS as well.  Did all the streamers just lose "Nightswimming" to ads, or just me?  That'd be my BOS2.

Actually... he may not have been there then, now that ya mention it. (I was an Alex Bennett guy in '92; never listened to the KFOG morning show with M.Dung -- maybe Scoop Nisker was the newsguy then?)

yikes, another commercial-during-a-song mishap with REM, who nonetheless get a BOS3 for "Nightswimming".

these commercials for Death at a Funeral, disguised to look like an "entertainment report" are awful, KFOG's playing 'em too.  (Tho' the film itself looks pretty funny.)

just noticed that my previous post was #7777.  

Which brings to mind that the Olympics start a year from tomorrow, at 8:08:08 pm on 8/8/08.

He was the morning guy before Dave. Surely we've discussed him here before. I found him annoying and unfunny but he had his following, apparently.

indeed, BOS4 for me, a superior '92 set (tho' from Ginger we expect no less).

You took the gag right out of my keyboard.

But OOH!  BBBOS to the Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead!  I adore this song both for its music and its message.  And I'll once again tout the Crash Test Dummies cover that came out a year or so later (sung as much by the gal in the band as Mr. Bass Man).

Dung started out as doing a Sunday evening oldies show called the Idiot Show, and had a very over-the-top persona sort of reminiscent of Dr. Johnny Fever, referring to the listeners as "babies" and interjecting the phrase "DOW!" (hopefully not in ref to the petrochemical company) at every opportunity. I think he thought he was channeling the DJs of the 50s. Eventually he attracted an audience and somehow leveraged that gig into the morning show. I wasn't in the bay area then, so rarely got to hear him on the morning gig, but I remember hearing the sunday night show in the early days of KFOG (82 thru say, 87).

BOS Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead.

I'm with ya there.  Not feeling this (then again, I have a very limited appreciation of blues-rock and the blues).

BOS4 to INXS's "Beautiful Girl," with an opening oddly reminiscent of JC's "Ain't Even Done With the Night."

Thanks for the history -- I remember when I first moved here, he hosted the Bammies, which were being televised, and I thought "who *is* this moron?" he fairly yelled at every artist he interviewed. His other catchprahse, as I recall, was "oh-DAY!"

The "Idiot Show" was sort of Dr Demento-meets-Wolfman Jack, no?
