Jersey Shore!!!
... a quick trip back to the motel to drop off clothes we went to bars on the boardwalk, still in daylight and following in Snooki's footsteps, the Tex-Mex place we found had cheap beer and friendly staff who unfortunately informed us that the main clubs Karma and Bamboo where closed on Monday and Tuesday but that Aztec might get busy later in the evening.
