TICKET GIVEAWAY: The Chilling Details in Asbury This Saturday

Timing is everything, but this time I've gotta make do with what I've got...

The Chilling Details are a fine band that calls Asbury Park, NJ their home. I latched onto them just this week, in time to schedule a song of theirs on the next installment of the Altrok Radio FM Showcase. (Y'know, Fridays at 10:00 PM on 90.5 The Night, right?)

And, as it happens, this very same band is playing The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ as part of the Comic, Art, and Music Armageddon on Saturday (that's April 29.)

So here's the problem: they've offered me tickets to give away. And so I shall. But since I can't do it on the radio (the show's pre-recorded, and nobody's there to answer the phone - I demand my Friday nights free, dammit) I'll be giving them out here.

How are they? Really really good. I'm playin' 'em, aren't I?

You can get a taste of what they're about at their MySpace page (where, in fact, you can download "GoGo", the song I'll be playing.)

Now then: you want those tickets? Sure ya do. Here's how to get 'em...

Go to the Feedback page and tell me "I Want The Chilling Details", and give me the name you'll have on your ID and an e-mail address I can reach you at in case something fizzles. Tell me if you'll be taking an extra person, and who that is - I've got five tickets (not five pairs) to give away, and I'd like to accommodate you if you've got a partner-in-crime.

Good luck!

Since this is a giveaway, there are disclaimers: Tickets will be given on a first-come, first served basis, and after the five tickets we've got are given away, there will be no others given out. You will be notified by us if you win. You'll be picking them up at the Stone Pony ticket booth. Altrok.com is not responsible for the tickets themselves, the quality or existence of the show or of the venue, or indeed of Asbury Park itself. After we tell you you've won, you're on your own, and if it all goes to hell in a handbasket in any way, we're not at all responsible for it. We're just humble website operaters, and know nothing of this so-called "outside world" of which you speak.

Please Look At Our Advertisers (Or The Website Gets It)
Congratulations, you've found the hidden text.
 
Welcome to Altrok.com, also available at AltrokRadio.com and AltrockRadio.com. Here's where the remaining listeners of several fine radio stations have retreated, regrouped, and built a replacement strong enough to stand on its own. It builds on the independent legacy of New Jersey's FM106.3, New York's WPIX and WLIR, Oklahoma's 105.3 The Spy, the pre-buyout mindset of KROQ, WBCN and WHFS and of every other alternative station that was destroyed at a moment's notice - not because they weren't making money, but because there was bigger money to be found elsewhere.
 
We've stood by as truly independent alternative rock radio died. Sure, something called "alternative" took its place, but we know for sure that anything that "tests well" with soccer moms just ain't alternative. (Even if some of us happen to be soccer moms.) So we've taken matters into our own hands.
 
This really is independent alternative rock radio, visible here at Altrok.com and audible at our web radio station. It has the classic music that fired our passions back in the day - or that we maybe only heard about from our elders - but it's mostly made of the new music that does precisely the same for us now. We're paying attention to scenes all over the world, watching the energy build, and waiting to see what it creates. Wherever it happens, we'll make sure you can hear about it here. We've been slowly building all this since 2001, and now that you've noticed us, we're glad you're here.
 
Of course, it's only here because you want it to be here, and it can only stay if you help it along - especially by checking out our advertisers (they support us) and by listening (the more that listen, the more visible we are.) Please use the "feedback" link above to let us know whether it works for you, and what you want it to be as the future unfolds. (And if you need help hearing it, let us know that, too.)
