Kilroy arrived in Hartford, doing his first morning show on Monday, May 24, 1965. He jumped, with both feet, into station promotions, hosting an appearance of the Dick Clark Caravan of Stars at the Bushnell Memorial in Hartford on May 30. Performers included Billy Stewart, Freddy Cannon, Brenda Holloway, Bobby Vee and Little Anthony and the Imperials. The following photo shows Kilroy with Peter Noone (lead singer of Herman's Hermits), and WPOP DJ Roy Cooper.

Not long after Kilroy emceed a show at the Bushnell Memorial on June 14, 1965 featuring comedians Marty Allen and Steve Rossi.

Kilroy's son, Larry Morton, believes the following photo was taken during the summer of 1965 in connection with the release of the
Ramsey Lewis Trio's megahit, The In Crowd. Shown are (l-r) Ramsey Lewis, Kilroy, Redd Holt and Eldee Young.

The Turtles and Brian Hyland. Orchestra seats only cost $3.00 - balcony seats cost $2.50!
