I just found a very interesting book about the music scene and history of Asbury Park. It incl. stories about several clubs like Stone Pony or Fastlane and about bands that played there, incl. Jon, Bruce Springsteen and Southside Johnny.

So if you are interested in the Jersey music scene I think it's a very interesting book.

It is called "Beyond the palace" and is written by Gary Wien. The publisher is Trafford.
