Still Rocking Hard in Asbury Park as the Bands Play On - New York
Times
"The Wave Gathering has as much to do with music as with this town
making its comeback," said Gordon Brown, one of several organizers,
a music promoter and a lifetime resident of Asbury Park who started
sneaking into clubs to see up-and-coming acts 20 years ago, when he
was 15.
"There's all these new buildings up and great little things
happening all over town -- resstaurants, cafes," he said. "And the
thing is, bands have been playing here forever. They never stopped."
One of the goals of the Wave Gathering, he said, is "to get the
music back out there."
Ron Haney, the Churchills' frontman: "I don't know if this is going
to be the big breakout year. But it does feel like there’s an oasis
of culture and civility coming up here. This event is going to kick
it up."
