A look at one of the world's most well-known music venues, The Stone Pony [stoneponyonline.com] in Asbury Park, N.J., by Maggie Perrotta [sageindiemusic.com]
Yes, the indoor capacity is around 750 to 800 people inside the building. We have a large backyard area and in warm weather months we have a large stage out there for outdoor shows.
I gotta get there before I die. My final wish is to hear the twang of a Telecaster to that "Jersey" sound at the 'Pony - but it's a long long way from the land Downunder "...One day baby I don't know when, we're gonna get to that place..."
Hi, never been to Stone Pony, but we are some Europeans talking about a pilgrimage. When you say "750 inside, 2000 out" -what does that actually mean? Does it mean that it is only 750 people in the concert hall itself? Thanks in advance!
