COMING THIS WEEK:


PULSE: http://soundscapes.us/pulse
=======================================================================
Pulse will be at Rios Brazilian Steakhouse on Friday, February 20, from
9:00 pm to 12 midnight. Rios never used to have music and this is an
experiment for them. It is important that people attend live music
performances or else the clubs stop hiring living, breathing musicians
in favor of DJs, Kareoke, or no entertainment at all, none of which are
anywhere near as exciting as live music.

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).

Having a party? Hire Pulse to play and your friends will talk about
your party for months to come.


RED: http://redacoustic.com
=======================================================================
The acoustic power duo RED consists of Karl Eisenhart (guitar and
vocals from Pinnacle) and Chris Michels (violin, mandolin, and vocals).

RED will be at Bear Creek every Friday night until the end of time.
http://skibearcreek.com


TRESPASS: http://trespassmusic.com
=======================================================================
Trespass will play a show at the Sellersville Theater on Saturday,
February 21, at 8:00 pm. They will play a great evening of Genesis
music from both the Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins eras with stunning
visuals, costumes, and theatrics. Tickets can also be purchased online
at the band website and at http://www.st94.com



COMING SOON:


THE MUNICIPAL OPERA COMPANY OF ALLENTOWN: http://munopco.org

COMING SOON:


PULSE: http://soundscapes.us/pulse
=======================================================================
Pulse will be at Rios Brazilian Steakhouse on Friday, February 20, from
9:00 pm to 12 midnight. Rios never used to have music and this is an
experiment for them. It is important that people attend live music
performances or else the clubs stop hiring living, breathing musicians
in favor of DJs, Kareoke, or no entertainment at all, none of which are
anyhere near as exciting as live music.

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).

Having a party? Hire Pulse to play and your friends will talk about
your party for months to come.


TRESPASS: http://trespassmusic.com
=======================================================================
Trespass will play a show at the Sellersville Theater on Saturday,
February 21, at 8:00 pm. They will play a great evening of Genesis
music from both the Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins eras with stunning
visuals, costumes, and theatrics. Tickets can also be purchased online
at the band website and at http://www.st94.com


PINNACLE: http://pinnacleband.com
=======================================================================
Friday Night Feature Artists is the showcase for local talent presented
at Dave Phillips Music and Sound. Pinnacle will kick the tires and
light the fires on March 27 at 6:00 pm. Don’t be late because it only
lasts an hour. What a great way to decompress after work on your way
home for the weekend. Call DPMS at 610-820-5600 for details.
622 Union Blvd., Allentown, Pennsylvania 18103

Catch this rare Lehigh Valley appearance of Pinnacle. Best of all,
it's FREE.

We were 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.

Speaking of CDs, we have two albums for sale at CD Baby. 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 at
iTunes, too! If you have iTunes on your computer, go to:

PULSE: http://soundscapes.us/pulse
=======================================================================
Pulse will be at Rios Brazilian Steakhouse on Friday, February 20, from
9:00 pm to 12 midnight. Rios never used to have music and this is an
experiment for them. It is important that people attend live music
performances or else the clubs stop hiring living, breathing musicians
in favor of DJs, Kareoke, or no entertainment at all, none of which are
anyhere near as exciting as live music.

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).

Having a party? Hire Pulse to play and your friends will talk about
your party for months to come.


TRESPASS: http://trespassmusic.com
=======================================================================
Trespass will play a show at the Sellersville Theater on Saturday,
February 21, at 8:00 pm. They will play a great evening of Genesis
music from both the Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins eras with stunning
visuals, costumes, and theatrics. Tickets can also be purchased online
at the band website and at http://www.st94.com
