dancensmile Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 How is River Street usually? I've been dying to go there for the longest time... If anyone knows pm me... I'd really appreciate it Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clubangel Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 I haven't been in a while on the weekend...went last Thursday...no one was there at all!.....Saturdays are their most crowded night by far though... And Thursday through Saturday there are $1 drink specials from 9-11pm which is a bonus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancensmile Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Thanks for the info... I think I might check it out Saturday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slyonspromos Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 From working at river street in the past i have all nice things to say about the place except for the front room dj he really blows. He always wears tank tops thinking hes mr t and hes like 4'11 ask clubangel she always used to get hit on by him. The club is a minature soundfactory in the back room. If your a dj its horrible because you cant even see the crowd from the dj booth. Drinks are somewhat reasonable but lets face the facts hoboken isnt like what it used to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwyllion Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 I'm personally over River Street. I used to like it a lot, now it's rather cheezy to me. To each his own. You'll never know unless you try it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slyonspromos Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 YEAH THATS HIS NAME DJ AL THE MIDGET. in the summer i remember he used to kill the crowd in the front room even had me crying at times. If you like river street definitely go to the old manager of river streets new spot Screweys Bar on 337 kearny ave in kearny i will be there saturday but if u ever go there just ask for rocco and tell him your a friend hell drop a few drinks for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesandman Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 You all forgot the best part of DJ Al, he somehow had the KTU "working the mix" voice guy do a promo for him. The guy plays the worst music no matter what your into, then while killing you buzz over the music you hear the plug"DJ AL....WOR WOR WOR WORKING THE MIX!"Uncle Buc actually heckled him once...

Though i plan on getting progressively harder as the night goes on, so if you're there at 10 and i'm playing soft, don't think that's what im' doin all night.I hope the night goes well b/c i think with the right people and the right music river st has a great set up......especially for hoboken....OH and people can email any requests or ask me there, though i hear they are strict about not letting people in the booth.....Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurie619 Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 I'll keep that in mine Justin, I can be like one of those girls that go up to the DJ and say....OH OH OH PLEASE PLAY "DERB" PLEASE PLEASE.... You know what I'm talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancensmile Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Sounds good ~ I'll probably check it out ~ as long as the music is good ~ I'll be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what I'm talking about let me tell you the first time i spun at cheetah was the worst. I had spun at a few big clubs b4 but never being right on the dancefloor. I got there early to figure shit out, and there was a 10 year HS reunion going on. I was all panicked trying to figure shit out and these 2 girls kept tapping me and i'd be like "one minute PLEASE" as nicely as I could respond. I'd put the headphones back on and not 2 seconds later TAP TAP TAP....needless to say after 4 rounds of this I finally asked what they wanted to hear and they wanted WHAM or George Michael shit. I knew I was in for a long night then....lolANd one of my best friends is this promoter who will nag me all night to play 1000 different songs. It's all good b/c i watch him do it to Boris, Shawn Ink, Richie Rydell....If Jonathan Peters didn't lock his booth, he'd be there tooooololjustin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(sorry this is a guys review) but.......other than that it was good...... I completely agree with you. I used to frequent River St back in the day and went at random a few weeks ago. I noticed that it houses a VERY sketchy crowd. That place is filled with busted guys and slam pigs. The music was decent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRIAN1500 Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 I went about 2 months ago on a Saturday and they didnt even open the back room until at the earliest 1130. The music in the front room was horrble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyblackroc Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Originally posted by clubangel How did I know this was coming?...LOL I gave the place props based on the fact that you all like it......When it comes to opinions on places like this, I trust the STOMPERS!!!!!!!
