Who: Jack Austin with special guests Caloo Calay!
What: The much-anticipated radio show
When: Monday afternoon commute -- starting around 4:30pm
Where: WPLJ 95.5 radio station
Being the Assistant Manager of the station meant Jack had a little bit of pull. He also had four hours a day where he was on the air and could do pretty much anything he wanted with the time slot. Jack liked showcasing new talent. To him, that was part of what music was all about. Music would never go anywhere if new bands didn't get any exposure, and he was proud to have played a part in helping a few of his friends get noticed -- even if it was only locally.
Barry was still in the studio, wrapping up his set. Jack knocked on his window, letting him know that he had about fifteen minutes until he had to go to break and hand over the reins to Jack's show. Breezing through the station, checking on things as he went, Jack made his way to the back door near the parking lot so he could let Harri and the band inside and help them with their equipment. They were already unloading things, and he reached out to give them a hand. "Hey, guys!" he called, taking a guitar case in one hand and slapping Harrison on the back. "Good timing. Glad you're here." Jack leaned in, grinning at his friend. "Don't worry, I didn't skimp on the beer."
