David Shortell 5:37:37 PM
For a surf band, Party Nerves has oddly avoided playing on the shore (or anywhere else in NJ). They’re playing in Westchester County on Saturday though.
DSM 5:37:58 PM
I wasn't aware anyone could dislike Bath Boy
Esoterica (host) 5:38:23 PM

-ᎷяMΔᏞᏨØИᎢΞNᎢ-💀 5:42:43 PM
I don’t want to hear nuthin from Mutski or Quartley Barfnett so I totally respect DJ Esoterica for not connecting with a request and appreciate the response versus no response. 🖤💀
