If you're a DJ, how would you handle this situation? Your air shift is over. You know the next DJ is in the building, but you don't know where. I remember this scenario happening on KYKY in 1983 or '84. After the DJ whose shift was over yelled to the DJ who was due in next and got no reply, this is what I remember happening:
DJ 1: I guess he's still preoccupied. Well, OK...(The album version of Styx's "Babe" starts playing.) "Between rock and a soft place..."
(DJ 2 starts yelling in the background.)
DJ 1: Oh! Sit down, sit down, sit down...
DJ 2: "Between rock and a soft place..."
DJ 1: Oh, I already said that.
DJ 2: Really? Did you say, "Adult Rock, KY98?"
DJ 1: No.
DJ 2: Did you say, "Thirty minutes of continuous music begin right now?"
DJ 1: No.
DJ 2: Did you say, "Styx starts it off with 'Babe' on KY98?"
DJ 1: Nope.
DJ 2: Well, now, you've said it all.

Now, that's how you handle an unexpected transition.
