The Minnow sails again this Saturday Night . It is guaranteed to run aground on a sand bar, as at this moment the trap is being set with two tons of sand being spilled out for Lucky 7's Beach Party Weekend [Friday-Sunday]. On Saturday, come dressed as a Castaway or in beach attire for extra special drink specials and prizes for the Gilligan's Island themed mis-adventure. DJ Soul and Daveed are at Port-O lounge this Saturday. They will be grooving it as well and it will be a good place to wash the sand out of your trunks.
Groove on Grove debuts this Wednesday at 6pm with and all-star ensemble. The Defending Champions at 6 pm , The One and Nines at 7 pm, and Food Will Win the War at 8 pm. Liquor from Barcade and Saigon Cafe.

Please Read Before Drinking or Green with Heavy [Drinking]
St. Patrick's Day on a Saturday : O'Dear.
Now you can take all day to read James Joyce's Ulysses's or practice up on your Gaelic.
What's that you say ? you are really just looking for an excuse to drink all day, okay figures. well; first wear something Green, add and "O' " too your last name. Call every girl Lass. Make sure you don't know anything about Irish history and at some time be so wasted that you even you don't know what you are saying.
I'm starting early too, DJ William McCamie [last name not modified] and I, Dancing Tony [I'll be doing the jig I guess] will be spinning at PJ Ryan's St. Pat's Block Party. It's just East of Snookiville on Mercer [and Barrow] We are spinning from 1 pm to 10 pm out doors on their back deck, with an Irish Band that covers The Chieftains to U2. The Party moves indoors until close. Two Bars outside as well.
Later in the Evening:
Secret Country play Kearny Irish
DJ Leonard Smalls at L7's St. Pat's Party - Stuff going on all Day too [I think]
I'm not sure there are bands at teh Lamp Post as they may not want to waste valuable drinking space :)
Now also any other Establishment that serves alcohol may be doing something similar to this so please enjoy, be safe and eat something !!!
Just a guide here : Avoid anyone wear a plastic green bowler hat.
Even though you may wish to be a party animal please don't get your pet wasted
Sunday : Looks good for Volleyball : Try to sleep it off

For further information please call 411-5858
Hope you made it out last night for JC Fridays. Thanks to a 3 hour nap I was a one stop shopper, and spent my night at Pianoland. Great sets by the Ashes [new album available on iTunes], I am the Heat [with their newest member Billy Franklin] and Thomas Francis Takes his Chances [shows on March 10th & March 23rd at Asbury Lanes]
I got a bunch of questions and emails last night that I wanted to clarify some things:
1. The Rock-it Docket is not ceasing bloglication. [although I've been considerably slowing things down] I am however looking for a Charlie [Charlie and the Chocolate Factory] assistant to update the information and links on this blog. If you interested and involved in the Jersey City Scene and have about 5 hours free.
2. The business known as 58 Gallery was closed by Orlando Reyes in January, you can check the 58 website for further details or contact Orlando about his future plans and a new location for 58 Gallery.
3. After ten year's on Harrison Street in Hoboken, Moonlight Mile Recording Studio, run by Mike Mobious, will soon call the back room at 58 Coles Street their new home. When the new space is ready we will keep you posted about events, which will surely have a musical focus. As for the front space, which formerly housed the front gallery for 58 Gallery, Artists looking to show artwork, and those people interested in curating shows in the Front Room should contact Jon Besante.
If you are still confused wait for the VH1 special

Your Kiss is on My List
I know everyone is busy losing their collect!ve sh!t because a couple of Jersey Girls are coming to our Shore town, sadly they won't be able to attend Lucky Seven's Valentine Party this Saturday night. I would have loved to have their fresh lips work the Charity Kissing Booth, but alas I've been able to conscript some others to offer a Jersey City "Kiss of Death", all of the proceed will go to benefit the Historic JC and Harsimus Cemetery. The beneficiaries and host of the Ghost of Uncle Joe's is facing a shortfall in funds. I'll have T-shirts and hoodies to raffle off. Maybe some spin the whisky bottle fun and seven minutes in the Lucky 7's ladies room, which is considered heaven in comparison to the Men's room. Things start at 9 pm with the Dirty Shames and then Robbin Pain. DJ Leonard Smalls and Me, will get you Cupid on the Dancefloor.
Saturday Night also has the well touted Liquor Store at the Lamp Post.
Tonight it's the Mick and the Ashes at the Lamp Post.
Gotta go build a kissing booth.

That's your Tri-Day enjoy.
The city scope widens up on JC Fridays with multitudes of events. This seasonal will surely have a seasonal purpose, since no good holiday can't happen with out music, we've set up a Band Bonanza at 58 with The Charlie Afrosheens [530], Fort Courage [7], The Orion Experience [745], The Micks [830], and The One and Nines [915] -Times are sharp- If you would prefer to do your own show Take Your Chances and Head over to 4th Street. On the late side, Piano land has an after - after party til day break. Somewhere in between all of this please make a point to visit Robert Piersanti's Stdio on Pavaonia, in addition to a art work that will surely get your heart flowing, I'm sure he will additionally impress with some live burlesque performances and maybe a sword swallower and an elephant
