“To everything (Turn Turn Turn) There is a season” sang Roger McGuinn of the Byrds and the time has come to lift the LP off the turntable and slip it back into the jacket. This Sunday, May 20th will mark the last Acoustic Sunrise on KFOG.
Join us for a Greatest Hits Fond Farewell, featuring favorites from the show’s 27-year history in San Francisco. It’s one last chance to come together in our little oasis of serenity and toast the future – whatever that may be. With new horizons in my life and our first grandchild on the way, I’m going to take a break…though I don’t rule out popping up again in the future!
And as a lovely parting gift: tickets to two big Bay Area outdoor shows Dead & Co at Shoreline July 2nd, and Robert Plant June 21st at the Greek – listen for when the ticket portal opens!
So stay in touch, and thanks for your ears all these years, your touching and beautifully written emails and cards, your musical ideas, and your support for deriving songwriters.
Take care of your head and your heart, and tune in Sunday for one last spin together (for now!)
