August 1, 2014 (Red Bank, NJ) --- THE DISCO FRIES proudly announce an impromptu—“Pop Up” pizza party at Maruca's Famous Tomato Pies, which will coincide with their Electric Adventure engagement in Seaside Heights. This "pop up pizza party" will be held Sunday, August 3rd at 2:00PM with additional coverage by Michael Kaneff from the show, "Chasing New Jersey" on Fox and My9. The event will be formally announced by both Fox/My9 and Michael Graichen (Community Improvements Director, Borough of Seaside Heights) via social media on Saturday, August 2nd. Electric Adventure is an annual multi-day, youth culture event that takes place Saturday, August 2nd and Sunday, August 3rd The Beach at Seaside Heights featuring other top tier EDM acts such as DJ Snake, Flux Pavilion, and Dzeko & Torres. Nick Ditri and Danny Boselovic are keen on supporting "the real Seaside Heights," and addressing the needs of the community.

"Seaside Heights was decimated, and ultimately became a nonexistent place after Hurricane Sandy. A year later, a fire consumed the entire rebuilt boardwalk," says Nick Ditri. "This is our first year of doing festivals and we're able to celebrate at home and throw a surprise party for our hometown fans, and bring back a part of the local economy which was lost as well.” Nick and Danny will be partnering with Joe Maruca with the goal of providing pizza and smiles to the area's residents.
