It’s been nearly 7 years since TPD’s first event at The Shark Club. The Shark gave an opportunity to TPD in it’s infancy, when we were merely yours truly (tj) & DJ Vinnie B. The reality of it all was that Vinnie B was one of The Sharks favorite DJ’s and has maintained that title for most of the last 10 years. When we formed TPD in 2003, he was kind enough to let me tag along and build a base of friends in the area. If it weren’t for the Shark none of this would have ever happened.

We did a number of different events at The Shark throughout 2003, Bikini Contests and such, but finally, in Feb. 2004 we made it our home on Thursdays. The great people that I met over the next 18 months of $1 Beer Thursdays were innumerable. Those nights were legendary, with Paul, Chase, Brian & Jon behind the bar, as well as 600-800 people every Thursday night, the formula never failed.

Our first run at the Shark ended in October of 2005, only for us to return 3 different times over the next 5 years. Whether it was Vendetta, Just Us, F*ck The Paparazzi or “The Bracelet” it was something to write home about. If you haven’t ever been to one, you’ve missed DJ’s like DJ Scene, Risk One, Evil One, Deniro, Reaction & Steve1Der. You’ve missed acts like Dan Purser, Shwayze & Dirt Nasty. Don’t worry, you have one more chance to make it down, this Thursday 3/11/10, at The Shark Club
