The Countdown Has Started! 

Garden State Gay Socials is excited to announce the countdown to our highly anticipated event, "Guys Under the Stars," on July 25, 2024. This evening promises not only stargazing and a delightful meal but also an opportunity to build lasting friendships and create meaningful connections in a welcoming and inclusive environment.

Why You Should Attend:

Building friendships as an adult can be challenging, especially within the LGBTQ+ community. Our events are designed to foster a sense of community and belonging, and "Guys Under the Stars" is a perfect example. Unwind and enjoy the beauty of the night sky with like-minded individuals who share your interests and experiences.

Building Friendships:

Events like this are crucial for building and strengthening friendships within our community. Attendees can bond over shared experiences, exchange stories, and support each other in a safe and accepting space. These connections provide not only companionship but also a network of support that extends beyond the event itself.

Why This Event Matters:

"Guys Under the Stars" is more than just an event—it’s a celebration of our community. It’s an opportunity to step away from daily life and immerse yourself in a serene and awe-inspiring environment. The shared experience of stargazing and dining together creates a natural setting for conversations to flow and friendships to blossom.

Join Us:

We invite you to join us on July 25, 2024, at the County College of Morris. The event kicks off at 5:45 PM with a presentation of constellations and celestial wonders, followed by a meal at The Black River Barn. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to connect with others and create lasting memories.

🌈 Garden State Gay Socials organizes inclusive events across New Jersey for gay men and women, fostering a sense of community where everyone feels welcome and valued.

Lighty's Corner: April 13, 2026

I’m one of those guys who hates it when people say that rock and roll is dead. That there’s no good new music today. I actually think there may be more good music now than ever, but it’s just harder to find. Since we get a ton of new music sent to us at New Jersey Stage each week, I decided to try something new - a recorded DJ hosted radio show and a column spotlighting new works. The plan is to have a new one every two weeks.




Makin Waves Song of the Week: "Make This World Stand Still" by Lisa Bouchelle feat. Amanda Shires

The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Make This World Stand Still" from Trenton-bred roots/country songstress Lisa Bouchelle's forthcoming album, "Vandals, Thieves & Lovers."




Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites... 04/09/2026

"It's not long enough but it's a pretty good run of shows. I haven't done a tour like this in about three years, even though it feels like yesterday, I haven't done a tour like this in a long time," laughed multi instrumentalist Hunter Hayes shortly before his two recent New Jersey shows at the Newton Theatre and The Stone Pony in Asbury Park. "I am thoroughly looking forward to it, I have been looking forward to doing a tour like this since "Evergreen" started coming together, you know, coming to life; "Evergreen" has been an eight to ten year process, depending on where you want to start, it's a pretty good run of shows and I'm really excited about it."
