Another question. Do you really think that either Asbury Partners, or MM know anything at all about the music biz? I don't. I haven't seen any proof of that at all. Yes, Gary of MM comes from a family known in the music biz, but that doesn't mean that they know how to develop or sustain a live music scene. Asbury Partners is clueless in that dept. Take the Deep for example. The guy that they chose to run that location has a pretty terrible reputation in the music communtity. He used to be involved in City Gardens in Trenton, which was notorious for it's skinhead and hardcore shows. That place eventurally had to close due to all the violence. And what kind of shows did they put in The Deep. Hardcore, skinhead. And somebody died. If that's the best Asbury Partners can do as for keeping the tradition of music alive in AP then there is no musical future at all in this city.
