Hello, I'm new here. I googled for info on what year the EHT, NJ bar called Mothers burnt down and found nothing. Then I googled this string and got your forum. Specifically, I got this thread and posts by Shubertmaniac and Trelja.

Mothers was an after-hours bar in Egg Harbor Township, NJ. It was on rt 152 just before you crossed the bridge into Somers Point. It was just down the road from the Dunes. Mothers was one of the many legendary dives in the area along with the Attic, the Dunes, Bayshores and so on. It burned practically to the ground but I can't be sure of the year this happened. It might have been the late 70's.

If any of you know the year I would appreciate it if you could post the info. It would also be appreciated if you can provide any helpful links. The only thing I have found that mentions Mothers is Pointers Nightbeat

The band played all afternoon, then came back and played again at night, until 2am, when everybody went to the after hour joints - the Dunes, Mothers, Attic or Brownies, all of which had live bands that played all night long, until dawn. That's the way it was for decades, until the early 1980s.

Thank for the help.
