sorry if it is not exactly what you want to know but I am sure I read not long ago that this caravan where they shot the Cross Road pics is still out there somewhere, but I just don't know where exactly...

Here's the short version:

1. Jon's childhood home in Sayreville, 16 Robin Hood Drive

2. Broadway Central Cafe South Amboy, 1114 S. Broadway:
The band used to hang out there very often, especially Tico. There are BJ artifacts in several places surround the bar including a platinum album for SWW and a life-size autographed poster in the women's room.

3. Hunka Bunka Ballroom (Starland Ballroom now), Sayreville, Jernee Mill Road:
Alec worked there once and Jon used to play there. And the recent 2009 fanclub show was played there.

4. Fast Lane, Asbury Park, 207 Fourth Ave, and...

5. Stone Pony Asbury Park, 913 Ocean Ave:
Jon played there with his earlier bands.

6. The Roadside Diner, Route 33/34 West in Wall Township:
The cover for Crossroad was shot here. 10 min from Asbury Park

7. Seaside Heights boardwalk:
Favorite hangout of the band, videos like In and out of Love were filmed there, and photos for the NJ album are made here.

8. Surf and Turf Ale House, 415 Rute 18 S, East Brunswick:
Richie played there with his earlier band.

9. The Count Basie Theater in Red Bank on Monmouth St.where the legendary Christmas concerts were.

10. Seaside Heights - where the In and out of Love video was shot!

11. Enzo's Pizza in Sayreville. I believe it's on Main Street if you want to try to find it. Pizza Parlor jury.

12. Jon's fav Pizzeria is "Umberto" in Fair Haven, 583 River Road. There is a photo of Jon on the wall. I heard he usually eats Pizza Anchovies medium size.

13. SAYREVILLE WAR MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL
820 Washington Road Parlin, NJ 08859
