Day Job kudos
Part of my day job @ KFOG is producing the live recordings of artists that come into the radio station's studios. Every year we assemble about 15 or so of the tracks from the previous year - and release it on CD (limited run) All proceeds benefit San Francisco Bay Area Food Banks.
To date the effort has raised over 3 million dollars to help fight hunger here in the Bay Area. It's not the only effort our radio station makes to support the local community - but it's the biggest in terms of raw dollars.
This year is Volume 13. The 10th one I've been involved with (holy shit!)
The effort got some TV news coverage which you can see below. About :40 into the piece is a shot of me in the control room. That's where I spend my days.
It's a particularly good CD this year (if I do say so myself) You can get a copy at KFOG.com
No marketing hype - but they do sell out because it's a limited run. We have to promise the artists a limited run because they donate the tracks - no money for the artists - no money for the station - it all goes to food banks.
