By all
accounts, KFOG's 5th Annual Spring Wing Ding at
Paramount's Great America was a smashing success. With skies remaining
clear, temperatures staying in the moderate range, and little waiting
in notoriously large lines, Northern California's largest theme park was
over taken by lucky Fogheads who won their way in during various
contests held in the weeks prior to the evening. Offering rides for both
young and old, Paramount's Great America served as the stage for another
great Foghead event.
Speaking of stages, this year's Spring Wing Ding
featured a KFOG Private Concert with
World Class Rock artists Midnight Oil.
The Aussie band, led by 6'7" (and completely bald) singer Peter Garrett,
rocked the Fogheads with a warm mix of old favorites like "Bed
Are Burning", "Dreamworld", and "Blue Sky Mine",
as well as newies from the band's latest release Capricornia. The
band has always been known as an energetic live entity, and they held
up to their end of the bargain, with Garrett catapulting himself around
the stage, arms flailing, leaving the rest of the boys to grind out their
tight, earnest rock and roll.

Thanks
goes out to all the Fogheads for coming out and making this another
KFOG Spring Wing Ding to remember.
