"Bones" in 1958

"Bones" in 2006

Tim "Bones" Hamlin was an assistant to famed rock D.J. John "The Hawk" Hawkins, until Hawkins' murder in 1958.

Bones thought highly of his boss, but had more than one disagreement with him. Bones had made an ill-fated attempt to break into music by writing a single called "Belly Button Rock". Bones had been trying to impress a girl named Sally, whom he'd met at a roller, and was upset when Hawk didn't play the song. Bones stormed in during a conversation between Hawk and his ex-wife Dottie Mills. Bones offered to have his father buy Hawk a Skylark to get Hawk to play the song, but insisted he wasn't for sale. Bones then stormed out, after making a seemingly veiled threat about the gun Hawk kept in the recording booth. Bones' resentment didn't last long, however. Bones returned the next day, hat in hand, and was forgiven.

Bones was present at one of the sock-hops that Hawk hosted where a man named Lloyd Chester threatened Hawk and wrongly accused him of impregnating his daughter Carly Chester. Hawk was also with Hawk at a concert when Scott "Skiz" Stenkovic and his girlfriend Jenny tried to approach Hawk. Bones stopped Skiz but Jenny managed to give Hawk a record she'd made. Bones didn't know that Jenny was actually Hawk's long-estranged daughter and she'd recorded "Scarlet Rose", a song Hawk had written for her as a child, to show him who she was.
