We talk to Jake Perry - Talent Booker for the world famous Whisky A Go Go on Hollywood's Sunset Strip. Whilst growing up in the 90s but by Jake's own admission, his whole life has been in a time warp. Raised on the East Coast he would fall in love with Horror Movie Soundtracks which would expose him to bands like Dokken and RATT and throw him into a Hair Metal rabbit hole whilst watching movies from The Two Coreys - Haim and Feldman. Wanting to plug himself into that world he would head to Hollywood and begin working for one of his heroes - comedian and actor Pauly Shore before eventually landing a role as PA for none other than Corey Feldman himself and later booking his favourite bands at one of rock and roll's most famous venues.
