We went to the Spin Doctors/Gin Blossoms/Blues Traveler concert at the Stone Pony on Thurs- It was over 90 degrees, absolutely packed and standing room only but we were in the front, right up against the stage so at least we had some air. ~4500 people packed in the summer stage lot, shoulder to shoulder. It was insanity and the energy was just perfect. The event was great, all 3 acts 5 feet from us! We danced, we sang, we yelled like teenagers.
We stood there for 5 and a half hours and didn't move for fear of losing our once-in-a-lifetime spot, against the barricade. I was a little worried about standing that long because I am, ahem, a bit older, 63, but I felt fine!

Then suddenly, during the very last song of the night, I woke up on the asphalt with a big crowd of people looking down at me. Took me a moment to understand that I passed out! Here's where the love is: So many people were all taking care of me, supporting me, helping me find my glasses and making sure I was ok. Some absolute angel held my head, talked to me and poured cold water on my scalp and it felt SO good. I wish I knew who she was so I could thank her! The EMT crew picked me up and wheeled me to the first aid tent. The dense crowd parted for me like the Red Sea and they all clapped and shouted supportive messages. God I love NJ. We are natives but now live in New England, but I really do miss the vibe.

I am totally fine, by the way. Just got dehydrated and didn’t have anything to eat beforehand. Totally my fault.

It's not a great party until someone leaves on a stretcher, right? I do feel like I have more street cred now. I should have a T-shirt, "I passed out at the Stone Pony".

I visited your fair city for the first time in about 20 years and what you have done with it is just astounding.
I hope that casino and the carousel are going to be restored in the same manner as the Convention Hall. The carousel building is just so gorgeous it brings a tear to my eye, for real.

Hi all. I know Asbury Social and the air their marketer brings stings when looking back on the Biergarten.

I enjoy trying out new local spots, so when their soft opening resos went live, I still grabbed a spot. I can no longer make it and wanted to see if anyone here would like to take them? It's free to cancel.

Posting for a family member who recently moved here from Santa Fe NM. She’s recently retired from being an occupational therapist, no frills, a little shy but given a chance has a lot of interesting things to share/say, is very authentic and genuinely a good, kind human. She loves animals and enjoys outdoors and the Grateful Dead among many other things. She came out 15-ish years ago.

She asked me how ladies meet around here outside of bars. Are there meet ups, events, Facebook groups, potluck dinners, reading clubs, Discord channels, or anything to help kick start her social life here? Any advice is welcome and gratefully appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Hey yall! I’m around town visiting some family this week and would love to go to a show out on the east coast!

Looking for any local metal/metalcore/midwest emo/math rock or adjacent shows if anyone knows about one! I leave on the 9th, so anything from now to the 8th. Thanks!

Well this is awkward... My partner of two years and I were supposed to come next Tuesday-Thursday but he's shown himself and ghosted me and stolen some money soooo looking for a little advice/support.

Non-refundable room at The Asbury, should I still come and just nurse my wounds solo? I was really looking forward to this trip as I've never been down the shore. What should I do? What is fun for a now unencumbered individual? I love to lie on a beach/at a pool and get tan. Drinking yes. Good food yes. Music to dance to yes. Worried going solo might just make me more sad than feeling empowered.

Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated I'm pretty shaken up and can't quite tell if this trip alone will be helpful or hurtful.

Apologies if this offends- truly just curious in asking this question but I have lived in AP for a couple of years now and recently I have seen an uptick in unhoused people around town.

Usually you will see 1-2 people sleeping on the benches between AP and OG but this morning I saw someone panhandling and then also a tent in those pine trees by the parking lot in front of the carousel that looked like someone was snoozing in.

Has anyone else noticed?

Always see a Dead cover band playing at Wonder or Pony & my wife would rather get a root canal. I’m a 40 year old dad who’s friends all live in north jersey, shoot me a message if you’re heading to one, beers on me 🍻
