Hey, Fogheads, Dred Scott here. Every weeknight at 8 pm, join me for KFOG Connected – a set of songs connected by a theme, topic, person, place, thing, ice cream flavor or crayon color (that is to say, it’s pretty wide open).
Every day, I’ll post that evening’s connection and Fogheads are encouraged to suggest songs they think I should play and why. Don't be afraid to think outside the box. You can suggest topics, too. One per Foghead, please. Best suggestion of the day wins a cool prize (usually concert tickets - live music, yay!)
KFOG Connected will be on hiatus while we do "KFOG A to Z." It will return after Memorial Day weekend on Tuesday, May 29th.
Email your suggestions here or post them online at the KFOG Radio Facebook Page.
