WHAT:
New Alternative Music Festival
Two day festival. Bands without dozens of corporate sponsors and beer logos.
WHERE:
Convention Hall, Asbury Park, NJ
WHEN:
September 16 – 17, 2016
WHY:
Music festivals have become the rabbit hole of a money suck and the millionth opportunity to show off hundreds of advertisements. The NAMF was conceived to spotlight the music and not the sponsors.
THE GOOD:
Great cross section of bands both known and unknowns. Highlights included The Screaming Females.
THE BAD:
Way too small of a crowd. If people want new music they had better support new music.
THE UGLY:
The dust and mold in Convention Hall is a real example of how Asbury Park let this amazing venue fall apart. New hope exists as Asbury is becoming (once again) the place to be. I still miss Asbury Lanes though. I sneezed for three days.
