these two will get along, then, because jack actually bartended at one of the music halls downtown before he opened up his shop, and he's worked record stores and bartended for music venues for the better portion of his post-grad life. and prior to going to ucb, jack was even in a band in high school and wanted to pursue music when he was younger. he's never really let go of his passion for playing, but it's something that's not a priority compared to his business and he does love the environment of a record store. so solidarity over growing up with dreams of making a living doing music but going down other paths!
