Description

Ron Poore, a.k.a. "Jetson" was only at 97X for a year back in the late 80s, but he moved on to record labels, where he has continued to work tirelessly to get great music into people's ears. Currently Senior VP of Alternative & Rock Promotion for the legendary Atlantic Records, Ron chats with Dave and Damian about how promoting a band actually got him his first gig at 97X, how a trip to New York City with Rock & Roll Grocer Frank Eavey changed his career trajectory... and how his son saved his life.
Special holiday gift: check out this episode on 97Xbam.com to hear the 97X in-studio performance from the Dave Matthews Band back in 1995, a session that happened thanks to Jetson's ties to 97X.
