Rock n’ Roll & Turkey!

Back in the day at Tony Marts, and all over, it was always the tradition to rock n’ roll on the Wednesday night before and the Friday night after everyone gathered for Thanksgiving. At Tony Marts it was one of the biggest “Drink and Drown” Wednesday night parties of the year, and there were always more than 500 people embracing each other and partying on one of the biggest off-season nights at rock n’ roll bars in South Jersey.

Everyone would cut loose and have a great time celebrating the holiday and Homecoming.

Nowadays, a lot of people like to get together and cook the night before and many people still party on that Wednesday night; by the time Friday night rolls around, however, those who want to have a really good time are tired of watching football & eating leftovers and they want the best rock n’ roll party they can find.

This year Tony Mart Presents will bring the Billy Walton Band to the warm and cozy vintage showroom, The Celebrity Theatre, at The Claridge Hotel where it will be a general admission open house party. $20 buys your first drink and two rock n’ roll shows entitled “PAINTED BLACK FRIDAY” as The Billy Walton Band continues their tribute to The Rolling Stones that they have been performing for years as part of “the rock n’ roll on turkey day” weekend tradition.

The doors open at 6pm at The Celebrity Theatre so you can start to mingle and claim your favorite seat or table in the classic showroom before enjoying both of two performances when the Billy Walton Band pays tribute to the greatest classic rock n’ roll band still touring the world, The Rolling Stones.

Billy Walton has always been a huge fan of The Stones and he is ecstatic, really excited to bring us his entire band and Destinee Monroe to this fabulous rock n’ roll show that will feature performances of The Stones earliest major hits, “Satisfaction” & “Jumping Jack Flash”, as well as the haunting rock n’ roll driving dance song after which the show is named, “Painted Black”.

Highlights during the more than two hours of music will include a riveting performance of “Wild Horses” by Destinee Monroe and The Rolling Stones critically acclaimed classic “Let It Bleed”, title track from what many consider to be their greatest album; and “Sympathy For The Devil”, their spellbinding signature song that is one of the most famous subculture anthems of our times.

Everyone who was at The Mart in the early 70’s remembers that you couldn’t go through a night there without hearing “Brown Sugar” at least three times!

It will be really fun and relaxed, entertaining good times with great views and superb acoustics as Tony Mart Presents our own Jersey Shore Rock N ’ Roll Guitar Hero, Billy Walton, in a spectacular first class casino showroom.

In the Tony Mart Jersey Shore rock n’ roll tradition, there is no better way to dance off the turkey!
