From the Mouth of Jack!

“Tune in Wednesday morning to Janet’s Planet, which runs from 6-8 AM CST on WEVL 89.9 FM here in Memphis!

She’s going to be playing a shiny new version of “Loose Arrow.” We don’t know the exact time she will be playing it, but it will probably occur between 7-7:30 AM.

Janet’s good people, so tune in regardless.

I think they stream the station at http://www.wevl.org for those of you who are out-of-towners.”

Tune in folks, you’ll like it.

Also stay tuned for another announcement at the end of the week! [/cryptic]
