Pinnacle is the Lehigh Valley's premier Progressive Rock band.  They
craft a big sound of accessible music.  They have played at festivals
(NEARfest After Party, NJ Proghouse Homecoming Weekend, Prog Day, and
ProgOctoberfest) theaters (Crossroads in New Brunswick, NJ; Forum in
Metuchen, NJ), backed Nick D'Virgilio (Genesis, Tears for Fears,
Spock's Beard) in concert, shared the stage with Riverside (Poland),
Spock's Beard (California), and performed at The New Jersey Proghouse
concert series multiple times.  Influences include Kansas, Jethro Tull,
Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, Beatles, Marillion, Spock's Beard, Dixie
Dregs, Steve Morse Band, Rush, and others.  The music is hook-based
songs that include musical flights of fancy that you can really sink
your teeth into.

GALACTIC TRAVELS ON WDIY:                   http://galactictravels.info
=======================================================================
Tonight at 11 pm EDT/GMT-4 will complete the celebration of the 1000th
episode of Galactic Travels.  The last two hours of Robert Rich's epic
"Perpetual - A Somnium Continuum" will be presented.

Famous for his legendary Sleep Concerts, Robert Rich created Perpetual
in the same vein.  The idea is to let the music incorporate itself into
your perceptual framework during the night, to create a sonic surround,
an environment for unique states of consciousness.

Galactic Travels is an electronic, ambient, and space music show that
airs each Thursday at 11:04 pm on WDIY 88.1 FM, Allentown and
Bethlehem, 93.9 FM in Easton and Phillipsburg, 93.7 FM in Fogelsville
and Trexlertown, on the internet, and in High Definition Radio at 88.1
