Well I ran the radio station in college and then my friends ran it, and then my friends, and then my friends... basically my entire life has been the college radio station...

It was 1988 and we were all big Church fans and Marty had put out this solo record where he used a Gizmo! So I told my friends all about it - hey there's this weird old guitar effect he used, and I have one!

And they wound up meeting the band at some sort of press/radio thingie, and asked Marty about it, and he told them he was very enthusiastic, but his Gizmo had died. So I called up their management and explained that I had this guitar thingie that Marty would surely want to buy. This led to us all going to their NYC show, which was just as "Milky Way" was peaking, and I met Marty afterwards and sold him the rig.
