Retard Convention



The name of this new site should be the above title and not http://www.2manyguidos.com/. I saw this banner flying by when I was "sunning" on the beach and I was naturally curious. Unfortunately, I was disappointed to find out that it was like NJ Guido but with no pictures just big bold predictions of how the Northeast guidos are going to take over the world through partying. Can we all just get along?


On a serious note, so I got a new job and I start this Monday so I am not sure how promptly I will be able update this baby. I would love to sit around drink some beer, eat pizza, and blog it out for the masses but I have a feeling I am going to be up to my ass in sales calls. Maybe I will surprise you.

Tuesday's the New Friday


That's what I'll be doing on the 4th at my shore house...

So this day feels kind of weird. I am working a half day and then we have Wednesday off to celebrate the birth of our nation, and then back to work. However, many people like myself, took off Thursday and Friday, so today is like Friday. So here's what's up.


For those of you staying in Hoboken, come by and check us out at the Gaslight. I am hosting Team Trivia and it is ladies night. Ladies eat free, I will be playing some hot music, and we will all be getting nerdy with trivia for prizes. It should be fun.



There really aren't any fireworks in Hoboken until the September Italian Festival but you can catch a little of the Macy's and Liberty State Park works on July 4th from rooftops in Hoboken.



Madison Bar and Grill should be very crowded and full of cougars tonight. So stop by and get your cougar on.



And lastly, for everyone down the shore, check out Bar A tonight for Beat the Clock. Go shorty, 50 cent drafts until midnight (increase 25cent each hour). You can totally get your college on up in that piece.



D'Jais has their usual Friday night party tonight, and their 4th of July party tomorrow.



Manasquan has Big Bang Baby at the Sprey tonight.



Have a great holiday and don't party too hard.

Are you a badfish too?


This Friday at Joey Harrison's Surf Club in Ortley Beach a great cover band will be hitting the stage. I have seen all the other bands like the Nerds and Big Orange Cone tons of times, but these guys bring the best beach music around. The band is Badfish, and they are a Sublime tribute band. They sound so much like Sublime it is scary. This isn't always a good thing because they don't stray too much from the original songs and jam like Sublime used to do. But there is nothing like drinking a beer by the beach and listening to some live rock, punk, reggae, ska music. Plus they got $1.50 beers on Fridays.

Songs of the Summer


Usually about this time of the year I make a mixtape called "The Weekend of Dreams". I made volume III last year, and I have a few others in my collection like "Belmar Bhangra", "Mr. Manasquan", and "DJ Tanner Full House Party II". The mixes are basically a continuous blend of all hot summer jams, aka party starters. I have yet to throw one together this year, but I will soon enough. In the meantime, here is a list of songs that spark memories of the summer. Most of these songs remind me of the Jersey Shore. Others remind me of baseball games, getting my license, graduating from school, backyard deck parties with party balls, and other quintessential summer classics. Here's my list in chronological order. Post your favorites and I will make a big summer compilation for anyone who wants it.

Go Fish


First things first. Tonight I am hosting trivia at the Gaslight in Hoboken. It starts at 8:30pm, it's ladies night, and we are giving away some good prizes. 1st prize is a 10 person one-hour open bar. So, stop by and say hello.


Next, if you were wondering The Moo got married. Ha.

Lastly, I am trying to organize a fishing trip for this Saturday down the shore. The boat takes off from Bogan's Basin in Brielle (very close to the squan) at 2pm and returns at 6:30pm. It is called the Jamaica II. After the fishing and boozing we'll head over to Union Landing for some cocktails and grub on the dock. Let me know if you want to get involved. Fishing is first come first serve on the boat.

Weekend Happenings


On Saturday, my least favorite NY Giant in pressure situations, Eli Manning, got engaged in Hoboken to longtime sweetheart Abby McGrew. My sources tell me that after much debate he decided to pop the question at the bar El Cuatro at the pre-party for Saturday's Hoboken Puerto Rican Day Parade. Local resident and neighborhood watch coordinator Tanny Fats oversaw the proceedings to validate the announcement. Here is a link to a gay article about Eli. Look at the first comment posted. Deuce chills all around.

On another front, my brother told me that the Caged Fury match was a great time in AC with many more exciting, racially charged fights taking place in the stands than in the actual octagon. Ray Mercer kept the always honorable spirit of boxing alive by basically throwing the mixed martial arts fight versus Kimbo Slice. kinda lame.








Finally, on a completely serious note, my thoughts and prayers go out to my friend Phil's family as their patriarch passed away early today. Please say a prayer for them.
