Knoxville Radio History 101 is a daily event and 101 wants to hear from you! In the news this week, Jack Ryan! No, not from the Tom Clancy novels, but ala WIVK, oops...Merle-FM! 101 asked our ace Ktown 101 insider Phil Jarnigan about the upcoming buzz...
"The Jack’s Back party will be a traveling one this Thursday. It starts out at Elliotts Boots at Campbell Station 4-6pm. There will be live entertainment, prizes, and free Jack’s Back t-shirts. The party then moves to The Cotton Eyed Joe at 7pm. I’m pleasantly surprised at the performer turnout for the show, and they’re impressive singers. And Con Hunley has turned down some VERY nice offers to sing this year. We’re incredibly pleased that he will be singing Thursday."
