1 Jan 2014: it's... "new"?

[CapnJack]

Will Renee be in today for a new episode of 10@10? Or did she pre-tape a set? Or will we get a Renee "classic"? Or nothing at all?

ETA: No show today. In fact, not even a "classic", as KFOG has opted to play their usual playlist instead.

actually, it's some kind of songs-with-"new"-in -the-title thingy. And "beginnings" and "start" and whatnot.

Did Renee arrive late today? Looking at the playlist, that would me the show didn't start until 10:12.  I shut the radio off after Neon Trees "Animal"...

I'm guessing she was voice-tracked, and that the computer was behind schedule. There was no one hosting the morning show today. (and, saints be praised, Rockwell will be sitting in for Gory tomorrow)

I will say I'm impressed that we got 2 theme sets in a row.

10. R.E.M. - Begin The Begin

Will be listening shortly. One obvious LN, one non-LN that RGM I'm sure hates (Naim), and a song that's well-played but very appropriate (U2). 3, 5, and 7 will be NTM (I'm wondering if Wilson is the guy from Semisonic).

(I'm wondering if Wilson is the guy from Semisonic).

Indeed he is. Saw him open for another act, without knowing who he was, and he started playing Semisonic tunes as well as songs he wrote for other artists (Adele's "Someone Like You" and the Dixie Chicks "The Long Way Around" come to mind). Someone in the audience remarked, "It's like high school all over again!"

Did KFOG play Macca's "New" when it was, er, new?

It was played during New Releases Thursday when it came out.
