Saturday: Floating NextUnderground Party Docks A While At The Corner Tavern

The NextUnderground party, which has been going strong under the curatorship of DJ Drew and DJ IronMike (with the occasional assistance of yours truly) will dock for the next few weeks starting this Saturday at The Corner Tavern, at the corner of Easton and Somerset in New Brunswick.

Don't know New Brunswick? Don't worry - just get on the train and head in its direction. When you get off the train, head up Easton Ave. and you'll soon see the Corner Tavern on your right.

(It's on a corner. It's a tavern. What's not to like?)

What should you expect? Real and classic alternative, from the here and now to the there and then.

The festivities start around 10pm, and continue through 2am; a welcoming crowd of like-minded iconoclasts will be there to greet you, so feel free to be your bestest you.

To summarize:

NextUnderground
Saturday, June 7, 10pm-2am
at The Corner Tavern
At the corner of Easton and Somerset
New Brunswick, NJ

Yours truly will, in fact, be in attendance. So will other New Brunswick legends (and if you come, you'll be one, too.)

In the meantime, why not tune to Altrok Radio for a taste of the stuff we'll be playing?

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.)
