Get Your Hyatt Room For the Mel Reunion Soon!

by Anonymous

Hey kids, don't wait much longer to reserve your room at the New Brunswick Hyatt for the Melody reunion on Feb 16th at the Elk's club. The rooms won't be reserved for us forever, so you don't want to risk not getting one! It's a great way for anyone coming in from distance to have a crash pad just a few blocks away. The Hyatt can be reached at 1-732-873-1234, just ask for a Melody Bar Reunion room.

As for our event, everything is looking good. There's going to be a big crowd again, and I look forward to sweating on all of you. I may also have a surprise or two for everyone, but we'll see if I can work it out...I just spoke with Pinfield and he is very excited about seeing us all. He realizes how amazing this will be and can't wait to spin some classic Mel tracks. He WILL be there, so don't miss him!

There are a few folks MIA from back in the day, and I hope someone out there might be able to contact Joe Canavan, Victor Malafronte, Shakespeare and Frank McGuire. Also for those of you who know Linda Haboush (spelling??) Please make sure she knows about the event. I lost her business card and she'll kick my ass if she were to miss this. And let's get Cal and Steve, OK??

All of you who plan to guest DJ, and you know who you are, please start thinking about your set lists. Focus on hitting a variety of classic Mel tracks from 86 to 92. Let's make sure we play some different stuff from the last event, and last year's play list can be gotten from this website, or just contact Sean, he has the whole thing.

That's all for now, I'll have more updates as we get closer.

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.)
