I have seen many concerts by Joe Grushecky, with and without his band The Houserockers, over the past few decades. And I’ve never once had the thought, “Gee, these songs would work really well in a stage musical.”

Grushecky’s gritty songwriting, combined with a truly affecting story that Rosenberg has created to link them all, and passionate singing by 12 actors — nearly everyone gets at least one moment to shine — makes for a moving and memorable theatrical experience in the musical’s current premiere at the sparkling new Bell Theater at Bell Works in Holmdel READ MORE

I keep a tab open with crazygames for when I need a break during work. They have a decent collection of browser games that run smoothly without any lag. The racing and shooting categories are where I usually end up spending most of my time.
By weaving together several of his best-known tracks, the production builds a narrative that explores love, loss, resilience, Slither io and the bonds of community.
