Timestamp: 7:00 AM – The event kicked off with Wish jocks Ray Holiday and John Journey touring around the busy streets of Quezon City via the Wish 107.5 Bus. Passers-by, commuters and listeners were treated to lively music and sensible talks broadcasted live from the country’s first FM-on-wheels.

Also boarding the bus was Rialyn Navarrete, a Wisher from Comembo, Makati City. Her simple dream to watch the “Breakthrough” concert of RnB crooner Jason Dy on September 17 has been granted today with the tickets she received from the station.
