If you’re a sucker for string lights, modern industrial design, and open-air spaces; if you like signature beers and beach views and yard games; if your mind is blown by the concept of a freakin’ retractable roof right by the Boardwalk in Atlantic City, then you’re going to want to head to T…

Dinner and a movie. It’s not bad — especially if it’s a fantastic dinner followed by an excellent movie — but it’s kind of lost its luster as the standard-bearer of date nights. After all, this is 2023, where we can DoorDash from our favorite restaurants and then download a current release r…
Over at AC Weekly, we talk to a lot of musicians. We speak to big bands and small, local and traveling. Many of them are cover artists; others write and perform originals. Some were taught by parents or friends; a surprising number learned their craft on YouTube. But very few are classically…

When heavily marketed movies for grown-ups still flop one after the other, it’s easy to feel cynical about the state of cinema in the United States.
Like most holidays, St. Patrick’s Day can be celebrated just about anywhere — we can’t be the only ones who’ve resorted to a box of Lucky Charms and a homemade leprechaun trap. Unlike most holidays, however, St. Pat’s doesn’t really require any massive planning or familial obligations — all …
There are some clever bar names out there, but Bill and Megan Bumbernick seem to have a serious knack for bestowing the perfect moniker upon a variety of watering holes. First, they opened The Surfing Pig in Wildwood. Then they opened The Swine Bar right upstairs from Surfing Pig. And while …

We all know the scene … we’re sitting somewhere, talking about a famous musician, and someone busts out their bragging rights to share that they saw “this person” way before they were famous. Whether it’s seeing Bruce Springsteen back in Asbury Park before he became “The Boss” or catching Sh…
It’s a multiple parade weekend, and you know what that means — the shenanigans shall be epic. Between the spectacular and unexpected resurrection of the Atlantic City St. Patrick’s Day Parade, the first annual Shake the Shamrock Weekend in Brigantine, and the always-festive parades in North …

March is just around the corner, and of course the big event is St. Patrick’s Day, when everyone is Irish!
When we last left off with the Chris Yoder, of The Chris Yoder Band, in 2018, there wasn’t a band at all. It was just Yoder, who, after more than 20 years performing as a front man for a variety of bands, was knee deep in a solo career. It’s been a good one — so good, in fact, that Yoder’s g…
