Line dance suggestions for songs you actually hear today:

Selected songs from Billboard's Top Country Songs, Week of July 16, 2011

DJ Joe White to bring a good time to 38 West, 4 Sure!

Tonight DJ Joe White will dust off his cowboy boots & line dance playlists to bring some great line dancing music back to South Jersey line dancers.

Joe White DJ'ed and taught line & couples dances in the Philadelphia area at Prospectors for years. Playing GOOD dancing music, he had a knack for pairing new songs with classic dances. It's been about a year since his departure from Prospectors where he is greatly missed by many boot-scootin' bar-goers. "Where's the Hell Yeah button" and "Wouldn't miss it for the WORLD" are what some said on facebook event, The Return of DJ Joe White. Choreographer of the line dance, 4 Sure , Joe keeps the dance floor moving.

If you can't make it out tonight, we've heard some buzz about another DJ Joe White appearance at 38 West on July 29th.

38 West
1533 West Route 38
Lumberton, NJ 08060
609-267-3578
