PULSE: http://soundscapes.us/pulse
=======================================================================
Pulse will be at the Maingate for their Bike Night on Tuesday,
August 14. Doors open at 6 pm and music starts at 7. It is important
that people attend live music performances or else the clubs stop
hiring living, breathing musicians. And you don't need to ride a
motorcycle to attend, either!

As always, please visit our website to find maps, directions, and other
information about each club we play.

PULSE plays at the level of a tribute band without specializing on any
one band. This is no mean feat! This high caliber Classic Rock band
plays the music of Steely Dan, Santana, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Moody
Blues, Jethro Tull, Blues Brothers, Beatles, and other top shelf
groups. The group includes Greg Van Allen (guitars and vocals), Rod
Gilkeson (vocals), Bob Ashmore (Keyboards), Bill Fox (bass and vocals),
and Billy Fenstermacher (drums and vocals).


PINNACLE: http://pinnacleband.com
=======================================================================
On Friday, September 12, Pinnacle will open for Polish band Riverside.
Riverside will be playing at two music festivals in September and this
is their only non-festival show in North America this year. So catch
them while you can. Pinnacle will unveil some new music that night and
proceeds from this concert benefit the Metlar Bodine House Museum in
New Jersey. So while you're having fun, you can save history, too!

We've been asked to contribute a track to Tuonen Tytär Volume 2 which
pays tribute to Progressive Rock of the '70s from Finland. The final
mix has been sent in for this compilation to be released on Musea
Records later this year.

Reactions to Meld, our latest CD, is overwhelmingly great! A new
review appears on the Progplanet website at:
http://progplanet.com/index.php?categoryid=42&p2_articleid=701

We think you're in for a real treat when you buy the CD! Order two or
more from CD Baby at http://cdbaby.com/group/pinnacleband and save 20%.

Afterglow Playlist for June 5, 2008

http://soundscapes.us/afterglow/playlists/2008/080605.html

Afterglow is where I present an eclectic mix of genres with an emphasis
on Progressive Rock.

If you or your band have a version of the Genesis song, Afterglow, send
it to me and I will consider using it to start the program. If I use
it, the band gets a link on the Afterglow web site!

Become a friend of Afterglow on MySpace.

I also host The AM/FM Show every other Saturday morning and will be
there on Saturday, June 28.

Listen to WMUH on-line now.

THE AM/FM SHOW ON WMUH: http://soundscapes.us/amfm
=======================================================================
My next stint on the AM/FM Show will be Saturday, June 28 at 6:00 am.
I will continue the special on Sequences Electronic Music Magazine's
sampler CDs.

Tune in to WMUH Allentown at 91.7 FM, broadcasting from the campus of
Muhlenberg College. I alternate hosting the show with Bruce. When I
am at the helm, the show features electronic, ambient, and spacemusic
at the beginning, an eclectic mix of genres in the middle, and winds
up with Progressive Rock. WMUH's web site is
http://muhlenberg.edu/wmuh


PULSE: http://soundscapes.us/pulse
=======================================================================
Pulse will be at the Maingate for their Bike Night on Tuesday,
August 14. Doors open at 6 pm and music starts at 7. It is important
that people attend live music performances or else the clubs stop
hiring living, breathing musicians. And you don't need to ride a
motorcycle to attend, either!

As always, please visit our website to find maps, directions, and other
information about each club we play.

PULSE plays at the level of a tribute band without specializing on any
one band. This is no mean feat! This high caliber Classic Rock band
plays the music of Steely Dan, Santana, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Moody
Blues, Jethro Tull, Blues Brothers, Beatles, and other top shelf
groups. The group includes Greg Van Allen (guitars and vocals), Rod
Gilkeson (vocals), Bob Ashmore (Keyboards), Bill Fox (bass and vocals),
and Billy Fenstermacher (drums and vocals).


PINNACLE: http://pinnacleband.com
=======================================================================
We've been asked to contribute a track to Tuonen Tytär Volume 2 which
pays tribute to Progressive Rock of the '70s from Finland. The final
mix has been sent in for this compilation to be released on Musea
Records later this year.

On Friday, September 12, Pinnacle will open for Polish band Riverside.
Riverside will be playing at two music festivals in September and this
is their only non-festival show in North America this year. So catch
them while you can. Pinnacle will unveil some new music that night and
proceeds from this concert benefit the Metlar Bodine House Museum in
New Jersey. So while you're having fun, you can save history, too!

Reactions to Meld, our latest CD, is overwhelmingly great! We think
you're in for a real treat when you buy the CD! Order two or more
from CD Baby at http://cdbaby.com/group/pinnacleband and save 20%.

"Meld" has been at iTunes for a while. Now "A Man's Reach..." is now
at iTunes, too! If you have iTunes on your computer, go to:
