[OT] [Altrok] Update #171: Support Your Local Web Station!

[hubcity@...]

Folks,

We're fresh back from a weekend that included a fantastic Melody Bar Reunion (see the previous post at our site for details) and, frankly, a lot of very nice weather here on the US East Coast.  The batteries have been recharged a bit, so let's press 'play' and see what comes out...

Online and offline, there are (as always) events...

- Tuesday night, hit Ready Steady Go at Marita's in New Brunswick, NJ for a dose of the updated version of what we did at the Mel Reunion.  It starts at 9pm, there's no cover, and the tracks are always great (but, of course, we're biased.)

- Thursday at 11:30am and 9pm, catch our replay of the Altrok Radio FM Showcase right here at altrokradio.com (and catch the new one Friday night at 9pm over at 90.5 The Night.)

- Friday, all day, it'll be Altrok's Eighties Friday, featuring the most relevant, least embarrassing bits of the Eighties.  It all had to start somewhere, so it started there.

- And this weekend, technology permitting, we'll be playing back the downstairs portion of the New Brunswick Melody Bar Reunion, as captured last Saturday live from the decks.  Yeah, it *was* that good.  Check the altrokradio.com page for details.

The rest of the time, it's the award-winning Altrok Radio mix, including the newest tracks we can get our hands on and classics that informed their creation.  Here's the rundown...
