Wow, just found this out ... RIP SF's legendary KFOG 104.5FM ... dying in a couple weeks ...

So many great memories listening to the station over the course of my life ... been away from the Bay for awhile but it was my go-to whenever I was home.

I remember back in the day, it was tradition on Fridays at 5pm to play The Toys - Smoke Two Joints ... loved Dave's 10 at 10, and Rosalie ... hell all the 80's-2000's DJ's were cool. Plus they hosted the annual Kaboom fireworks show & concert, which I went to many times. Saw Wilco in 2000 there, Train, Kenny Wayne Shepherd to name a few Kaboom concerts ... Acoustic Sunrise on Sunday was also a great friggin' show, featuring local, fairly acoustic concerts most of the time, often w/local artists. Great hangover tunes

Apparently some corporate assholes at Cumulus fucked it all up over the past couple years. A Pox on Their House ...

RIP KFOG
