KFOGKFOG is an frequency modulation radio station in San Francisco, California, broadcasting on 104.5 and 97.7 MHz. (The second transmitter is located in Los Altos, California, and serves listeners in the San Francisco Bay Area who are unable to get a clear signal on 104.5.) The station's format is an eclectic mix of five decades of rock (from the 1960s through today), blues, and reggae, which they call "world-class rock." KFOG has developed a reputation for being incredibly devoted to their community of listeners, whom they lovingly call "Fogheads." A prime example is the weekday morning show from 5 to 10: Prize giveaways (usually concert tickets) are routine, and the guests (including San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, who drops by about once a month) candidly field questions from callers and e-mails. The station also gives registered Fogheads first crack at tickets to private concerts, exclusive events such as Spring Break (when the station takes over Paramount's Great America for one day before the amusement park is open to the regular public), and so on. Many of the concerts KFOG sponsors are also recorded for the KFOG Archives, a massive library of live performances that gets tapped once a year for a limited-edition CD called ''KFOG's Live From the Archives''. No more than one million copies of each volume (the eleventh was released in 2004) are pressed, and all of the proceeds are donated to Bay Area Food Banks. Volume 12 is set to be released in November of 2005. ==Partial list of KFOG-sponsored events== *Private concerts: Held throughout the year *Spring Break (formerly Spring Wingding; mid- or late March): Registered Fogheads get free run of the Paramount's Great America amusement park before the general public *KaBoom (May): free concert at San Francisco's Piers 30 and 32, followed by a nighttime fireworks show ==External links== *[http://www.kfog.com KFOG website] Radio stations in California Radio stations in the San Francisco Bay Area See other meanings of words starting from letter: KKA | KB | KC | KD | KE | KF | KG | KH | KI | KJ | KL | KM | KN | KO | KP | KR | KS | KT | KU | KW | KX | KY | KZ |Words begining with KFOG: KFOG |
