Melody Reunion Update: Hyatt Rooms Now Available!

It appears that some of you didn't write down the date of the Melody Reunion from one of the earlier emails. The event is February 21st, 2009 at the Elk's Club in downtown New Brunswick. Doors open at 7 pm and we party until 1 am. It is free to attend and proceeds from the bar go to the Elk's charities. Age limit is 36 and up, enforced at the door by Big John. But all spouses/partners are welcome regardless of age. So if you are dating a twenty year old, they get in. If you are a polygamist, pick your favorite, because only one gets in.

The new news is that once again the Hyatt Regency in downtown New Brunswick has agreed to give our reunion attendees a special rate of 99$ for the night of the 21st. They have blocked off a number of rooms, so you can all crash together on the same floor. Call the Hyatt and ask for the Melody Reunion special room rate. You can find the number on their website, I don't have it in front of me right now.

So here's what to do. Walk to the event after booking a comfy room at the Hyatt. Have a few drinks, dance it off, then have a few more. At one, walk happy and sweaty back to the Hyatt knowing that all that drinking went for a good cause. That's the grown up way to have a good time.

See you all in February.

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.)
