A T-shirt ode to Houston radio stations of yore.
If you went to high school in Houston during the ‘70s and ‘80s, you always knew which lucky classmates had been to the prior evening’s rock concert at the Summit, Astrodome or Arena Theatre since they were usually sporting the band’s T-shirt and telling tales of past-their-bedtime glory.Likewise, you could tell what musical tribe someone belonged to by their choice of radio station T-shirt on their chest—if you were lucky enough to snag one as a promo from an event or thrown into an audience.
He mentions that when he attended the recent Red Hot Chili Peppers show at the Toyota Center wearing his 97 Rock T-shirt, he was greeted often with something akin to ““Music is a big part of everybody’s life. You can remember where you were the first time you heard ‘Tom Sawyer’ by Rush. Or if you won tickets from a station. It’s part of your youth. And there’s usually not any bad memories associated with radio stations,” he says.
“I never thought I’d be a T-shirt guy—but I guess I am!” he laughs. Alan is also the owner of three Christian’s Tailgate restaurant locations, and has other business interests. They were two of the original Shock Jocks that shook up the industry in the 1980s with shows more about blue humor and sexual situations than music.
