4th Annual Melody Bar Reunion: Saturday February 27th, 2010

Well folks it's time to announce the date for the 4th Annual Pinfield Era Melody Bar Reunion, which just so happens to be Saturday February 27th, 2010. Once again we will be at the Elk's Lodge in downtown New Brunswick. We'll start around 7 pm and rock until midnight. All your favorite DJ's from back in the day will be there spinning all the great music from our glorious past, including Matt Pinfield, of course...

We raised a ton of money for the Elk's charities last year I look forward to us stuffing their pockets again.

As always this is an event for the old school Melody gang from the eighties up to 1992 and the age for admission at the door will be 38 and up, enforced as always by Big John. As we were packed to the rafters last year, the Elks have politely asked that we try to control the size of the crowd a bit more, so please refrain from bringing extras who aren't really Melody Bar alumni. John will be screening out those who weren't really part of the scene so we'll all have a bit more room to dance.

This year we will be charging 1 dollar per person at the door, to compensate Ed Wong for selflessly offering his sound system to us time and time again. It's only a buck, but well worth it. After all Ed has two kids to feed.

As we get closer to the event, I'll send out more updates as necessary.

I look forward to seeing you all on the dance floor soon!

I wanted to go last time, but by the time I found out it was too late! If I go to this I'm taking a long trip out from Allentown, PA. I hope I won't get turned away-I partied at the Melody for the last 9 years of it's existence. Kenny "Batkiiler" Jarus-Pennsylvania

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.)
