This band changes as the wind blows, but is (for the most part) made up of those below. Old members, our buddies, and people we randomly pick up on street corners can often be found on stage with us doing Crites knows what:
Located in South Jersey, and proud of it, Drive-Thru Pharmacy has been harassing music listeners in the bi-state area (plus Maryland) for TEN YEARS, winning audiences over (or chasing them away) with their duel assault of horn-driven melodies and guitar fueled stage antics. They specialize in their own particular brand of ska/rock, often mixing the music with lyrics about New Jersey's own history and folklore: vicious sharks, heroic circus freaks, doomed ghost towns, frightening pirates, and the Jersey Devil.
DTP has shared the stage with such acts as Ruder Than You, The Toasters, The Scofflaws, Streetlight Manifesto, almost Bruce Springsteen (he played the night before, we were on the stage twenty hours too late) and, of course, Cobra Lung, but has more often shared the stage/ porch/ lawn/ floor/ garage/ basement/ elementary school/ bar/ skate park under I-95/ library/ tiny area in front of the bathrooms/Boating Club Graduation Party with such acts as No Regrets, The Retrotones, Doomsday Machine Schematic, Black Anchors, NDP, VE, Mose Giganticus, The Instigation, and, of course, Cobra Lung, as well as countless other bands. Sadly, we have yet to play a bar-mitzvah, though we have come close twice.
As always, Drive-Thru Pharmacy will play ANYTHING, ANYWHERE: weddings, birthdays, funerals, bar mitvahs, line dances, backyards, basements, grand openings, clearence sales, hockey games, class reunions, funeral reunions, and more! Seriously, try us. Do not be afraid to contact us at drivethrupharmacy@hotmail.com or through myspace, we LOVE mail! We have now OFFICIALLY played for peanuts. Our share of 25 pounds of them.

Holy crap! I can't believe you guys are still together. Master Adventure Man will always be one of my favorite ska songs. It was brilliant.
Anyway, I'm writing to let you know that I finally uploaded our album (yeah, the one that we finished recording 6 years ago, but never really distributed). Here's the url: http://...com/n6rj9y
I also just got back from Jamaica with - a whole heap of incredible new ska, rocksteady and early reggae 45s on labels like Beverley's, Top Deck, Tuneico, Treasure Isle and more! - a selection of Jamaican vinyl LPs we've never had in the store before!
