I saw this Asbury Park Sun story earlier today. It says that Chris and Bob Fahey, owners of Edgar's Pub in Manasquan, have taken over management of Asbury Lanes; and it sounds like, while they will honor the venue's current commitments, they want to make some changes. From The Asbury Park Sun:
“There are shows that are booked, and we are going to honor those shows of course,” said Fahey, 36. “But we are going to bring in other types of music as well. We want to bring in other types of music so it’s not just the punk genre.”
That troubled me a bit, and further reporting done by Speak Into My Good Eye hasn't done anything to allay my fears that Asbury could be on the brink of losing one of its signature music venues.
Let's hope it doesn't come to that and that Asbury Lanes doesn't get transformed into just another Jersey Shore cover band bar.
I had a great time at The Lanes back in July when another cooldad and I went to the absolutely insane King Khan and the Shrines show.
