The Monster Energy 2009 DUB Show Tour made its way to the East Coast for its third stop in Atlantic City, New Jersey on Saturday, May 16. Despite the gloomy weather outside, automotive lovers from New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, D.C. and Maryland made the trek to experience the hottest annual custom car show in the country. More than 12,000 packed the Atlantic City Convention Center to feast their eyes on the area’s hottest customs, bikes, exotics and more!

This stop featured the sickest custom sport bikes we’ve seen so far, with many shops and clubs brining out themed bikes decked out with custom airbrushed paint jobs and props sticking out from the every nook and cranny of these highly modified bikes. Movie-themed bikes that really wowed the crowd included Predator, Pirates of the Caribbean and Scarface custom bikes. Killer Kreations, Pit Stop and Tricked Out Custom Bikes each won awards for their sick bikes and were some of the most visited booths, along with the Monster Lounge, and F1 Motoring/Moble Addictions, which actually won Best Vendor Display. Their booth had various DJs, eye-catching customs like their white Lambo Murciélago LP640, and had tons of great giveaways for the crowd. Clubs that rolled deep to this show stop included: Low Mentality (who won the Best Club award), Ghetto Fame, Grantrismo Auto Club, Next Level and Final Impact.

Showgoers also got to hang with the Kawasaki Street Bike Team including Rickey Gadson, Jason Britton, Kane 'Insane' Friesen, and the Monster Girls! Rickey Gadson and his ZX-14 "Tribute Bike.” Really impressed all who stopped by to see it. Other great interactive displays included the Rockstar Games Midnight Club: Los Angeles booth, where guests played an exclusive demo featuring the Midnight Club: Los Angeles Saleen 302E; the XBOX 360 Gaming Arcade that had gamers playing their latest titles; the 2K Sports booth; and the MLB Road Show Interactive Baseball Experience that featured free batting and pitching cages, video game kiosks and interactive exhibits.

Besides all the interactive booth and exciting cars on display, the concert stage was off the hook with performances by Red Café, Fabolous, Juelz Santana and Jada Kiss, who closed the show with hits off of his latest album, The Last Kiss. The crowd went crazy went he performed his chart-topping singe, “Who’s Real” and loved his tribute to B.I.G. jam, “Letter to B.I.G.” The performers were also seen at the various sponsor booths, signing autographs for fans and taking pictures with them.

Thanks to everyone who made it out to the Atlantic City tour stop, both show goers and exhibitors alike. We can’t wait to see what the other cities have in store for us as we embark on the rest of the 2009 DUB Show Tour! Special thanks to all of our sponsors for making the 2009 Tour possible: Monster Energy, Rockstar Games’ Midnight Club Los Angeles, Pirelli Tires, Tag, Xbox 360, NASCAR, 2K Sports, Metro PCS, Mobil 1, Kawasaki, TIS, Dropstars and D20.
