*GET EV TO THE BASIE THREAD (NYC / NJ)*

All NJ / NY area ten clubbers!

As you know the Aussies asked for EV to add a couple Perth shows to his tour and after the idea got popular, it became true! So why don't we try to do something like this for the EV East Coast tour that's hopefully coming up!

In Red Bank (NJ) there is the legendary Count Basie theater! Bruce has played there many times, Counting Crows, Bon Jovi (ewwww), and Greg Allman! It's a nice theater and the roof would be blown off the place if Ed came! So why don't we try for this! C'mon New Yorkers / Jersians! I know we can do it!

Visit http://www.countbasietheatre.org/ to check out the venue!

    Red bank would be fine but njpac was the shit. He should come back and record there

    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
  • maccimacci Posts: 1,057
    I'd go see Ed just about anywhere in the NY/NJ area.....so why not Red Bank!?
    I could visit Jay & Silent Bob's place while I'm there.
    My lips are shaking.......

    Add me to the list... Spent my high school years over at RBC. Would love to see Ed at Count Basie.

    Point the car south and I'd be there in 1 hour, so I'm definitely in. (Although I really just want to see Ed ANYWHERE!)

    This would be a dream come true! This place is 2 blocks from my house.

    Count basie is a great place to see a live show. We have to make this happen.
  • cwmeyercwmeyer Posts: 33
    I too live in Red Bank, a quick walk to see EV at Count Basie would be a dream come true. Seems like a bunch of people are from the Red Bank area as well, who's down to get together at some point?
  • d1witdafunkd1witdafunk Posts: 226
    I love the idea of a red bank show since i'm in belmar. i was at the njpac show and the acoustics were awesome,however i have not been to a show at the count basie in red bank. Can anyone comment on the sound compared to njpac? Either way as long as Ed is in NJ or the surrounding area.....i'm STOKED!!! :D

    I'm also a RB resident so this would obviously be awesome! That aside the Count Basie is a great place for a show. I have been there a bunch of times…the acoustics are great…plus they just renovated the entire place.

    And who knows maybe Bruce would show up!

    ed @ redbank would actually be really cool....

    I live on the other end of NYS, but I'd drive myself over to NJ for a solo show!
