TONIGHT, It's The Melody Bar Reunion 2008: Here's The Details

by Altrok Radio

Okay, here it is, once and for all:



The Stiffy Biceptz challenge, by the way, is to not play anything we played last time - so, for the record, here's what we played a year ago, and here's what we played last September.

And here's your Google Maps link to the Lodge

We're starting up at 6pm. Last year when we did this, the floor was packed by 7:30pm, so be ready...

I'll be the one with the flashing drink.

Update 1: We just got promoed on G-Rock. That's it - it's gonna be sick.

Oh well, we failed the Stiffy musical challenge--albeit not by much.

Specifically, last night, I heard the Happy Mondays' "Step On," Dramarama's "Anything, Anything," Morrissey's "Suedehead," I'm pretty sure I heard "Bigmouth Strikes Again," and of course, Jigs' ode to the place we all love so much.

I think most of the repeats were played by Matt, who as we all know was in absentia the last two reunions, so how was he to know? And besides, Matt knows what we like. He always has and he always will.

And really...who cares about the repeats? This music has stood the test of time and I don't care if I hear it over and over again. The magic of much of this music is that it stands the test of time. To me, it doesn't sound dated at all, and I'd rather hear Nitzer Ebb than Three Doors Down ANY DAY. Bring it on!!

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.)
