Jersey Shore cast-member to hammer final nail into Sonar’s coffin

February 14, 2013
By

Poor Wesley Case. The Sun’s arts and “culture” reporter had to write a straight-faced blog post today about how Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, one of the self proclaimed “juice head Guidos” from MTV’s Jersey Shore is supposed to be at Paparazzi–the new club in what used to be Sonar– tonight. And he didn’t get to say that the whole event makes Dan McIntosh’s  involvement in a pot-dealing conspiracy seem small. I mean, would you rather have a little–ok, a lot–of weed on the streets or the Jersey Shore guys running around in a club named after the second most annoying group of people in the world (Jersey Shore guys eking out first)? If this isn’t a case for legalization, I don’t know what is.

But alas, Ronnie’s first fist-pump will hammer the final nail in the coffin of a storied rock ‘n’ roll club.

    What would be worse: If Ronnie were to “fist-pump the final nail in the cof­fin of a sto­ried rock ‘n’ roll club”? Or if aforementioned fist-pump were to someway,somehow bring it back to life?

    To think that Sonar is gonna be used to house a club like that, is a little too much to handle.

    A little more of Bmore will dies tonight….how did a venue that hosted MDF end up like this?? I guess the lesson is to make better choices (or just don’t get busted!).

    So, is just the presence of rock’n'roll shows in any proportion to other music enough to make something a “rock’n'roll club”?
