Although it's their Bike Night, you don't need one in order to enjoy
the best in Classic Rock. You KNOW that Pulse plays different songs
than all the other bands in the area. So come on out for a rare treat.

PULSE: http://soundscapes.us/pulse

PULSE plays at the level of a tribute band without specializing on any

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.

On Tuesday, July 21, Pulse will play at the Maingate in Allentown.
Although it's their Bike Night, you don't need one in order to enjoy
the best in Classic Rock. You KNOW that Pulse plays different songs
than all the other bands in the area. So come on out for a rare treat.
