Hey, Springsteen - how about spending some of your gazillions helping Asbury Park?

Asbury Park has a long tradition of rock music - they still hold festivals there, the Stone Pony is still open (I think?), and there was a place called the Saint that was a mecca for new music. I saw U2 at the Fast Lane, playing to about 400 people way back when.

You’ve got to update your info on Asbury, OK?

Springsteen gives hundreds of thousands of dollars (secretly) to Asbury. I know because I was part of a museum there that got a Springsteen “grant.” Despite his politics and music which I personally can’t stand, he’s very generous towards Asbury and other shore towns. Sheesh.
