Melody Reunion 2008 Update: Hyatt Hotel Room Block Just For Us

by Stiffy Biceptz

Only five weeks to go before the Melody Bar 2008 Reunion starring Matt Pinfield! Just to remind you, it's at the Elk's Club in downtown New Brunswick right across the street from the State Theatre. The event kicks off at six and goes till whenever.

Additionally, I have arranged to have a block of rooms reserved for us at the Hyatt hotel downtown. Now anyone who wants to party a bit extra can just stagger a few blocks and safely pass out with your Melody friends...This is ideal for anyone worried about a late night and a long drive home. So don't let the distance be an excuse, and get yourself a room! The Hyatt can be reached at 1-732-873-1234, just ask for a Melody Bar Reunion room. The rate is only 119! Maybe we can arranged to all eat breakfast together afterwards too...

I have recently spoken with Pinfield and he has reiterated how excited he is to be at this one and is looking forward to rocking us like he did back in the day. Now I know some of you are calling your bookies as you read this to check the Vegas odds on his actual appearance, but this time he means it! Really!

Jigs and I look forward to seeing everyone once again on Feb 16th. Come out early, and have a few drinks for the Elk's charity and dance like it's 1988 all over again. Remember to call and email any missing Mel refugees and make sure they make this one, especially if they missed last years. Anyone who can get either Steve or Cal to make it will be lauded.

See you on the 16th!

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.)
