plays the music of Steely Dan, Santana, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Moody

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 Saturday, October 31, Pulse will play at WDIY's third annual One Ale
of a Night.  This year, it's called Il Gala Verde (The Green Gala) and
will include a masked costume ball, wine and beer tastings, food
pairings, a silent auction, and, of course, music by Pulse.  Held at
the Allentown Brew Works' Hamilton Room, tickets are $70.  Reservations
