Context?

I heard this exchange on KDHX during a dial scan about 25 years ago:

DJ:  So, the full moon's this week, huh?

Respondent, in werewolf voice:  Yeah, we don't talk much about that in my family.  We like to avoid the full moon.  It does strange things to us.

That's all I heard of the exchange, and I've wondered about the context since then.  Under what conditions would an announcer interview a werewolf on KDHX or any other station?  Was the respondent part of an all-werewolf band promoting a new album and/or an upcoming concert performance?  Was he playing the part of a werewolf in some production?  Or, was he a neighborhood werewolf invited to provide a perspective listeners don't usually hear? 

I still don't know the answer, but welcome, nevertheless, to a new recurring feature.
