Other than Prince... is there anybody at the Billboard Music Awards (which KFOG is flogging/giving away tix for) that the average Foghead cares about? I mean seriously: Pitbull? Chris Brown? Nicki Minaj?

"Oye Como Va" and "Levon" within 20 minutes of each other. Is this typical of where KFOG is at these days?

KFOG's top songs are down to 27-28x/week.

Last night after Lost & Found they played Stars' "Give It."  I wonder if they actually added it, or just stuck it at the end of L&F because they had a few extra minutes.  I'd love for that song to be in their regular rotation.

interesting. New ratings will be released sometime today.

another oddity: Heard Rosalie play Frank Turner's "Recovery" Saturday morning and it occurred to me I hadn't heard Live 105 play it in over a week.

Holy crap: listening to Greg & Tim talk about the new Star Trek movie and they are beyond clueless -- Greg didn't know this is the SECOND in the new "younger cast" ST flicks and Tim got him even more confused when he tried to explain. Oy.

yeah. interesting. He replaces Dennis as PD but will he also handle the PM-drive jock shift? Curiouser and curiouser.

ETA: oh, and tonite's Connected theme is "change". Bwahahaha!!

We also have Dred and Renee out today...hmm...

Best case scenario, DC takes Renee with him & Dred moves into Renee's slot.

I was looking up some info about Constantine, and it turns out he has been in the business for almost 50 years and is pushing 70. I never would have guessed that.

Seriously? I'd have guessed late 50s or maybe 60ish at the most.

Anyway, we'll have to tune in and see what comes of all this. At this point, two PDs removed from the Salvatore/Morey era, I'm not sure even 10@10 would be considered sacred anymore.
Let's get right to it.

So Rockwell has been pulling Dred's shift for a few days now. Who's been doing Dennis's?

I'd love to see Dred (or anybody, really) take Renee's midday show.

And what do we know about Pugh? Where's he from, what's his background?

DC used to have a blog ( http://www.blogger.com/profile/02212240391531157811 ) and indeed as of 2008 or thereabouts he said he'd been in radio for "over 44 years". So even if he started as an 18-year-old, that would put him in his late 60s. Wow. I cannot even imaging pretending to like Foster then people or Florence & the Machine at age 68, much less actually being into them.
