Superbowl halftime

The Boardwalk in Asbury Park: NY City Serenade

by Tim Dempsey on February 2, 2009

The Casino, Asbury Park, NJ, November 2006With all this Bruce Springsteen talk: Superbowl halftime, new tour behind the “Working on a Dream” album, I found myself getting a bit nostalgic.  Back in November of 2006, I spent Thanksgiving with my two sons down on the Jersey Shore where I grew up.  The weather that weekend was incredible: I think it got into the 60s fahrenheit, so we had the great good fortune to enjoy a long and sunny walk an Asbury’s boardwalk.  Not quite what it used to be… but beautiful in its own decrepit way.  I was playing with Adobe Lightroom I think — and put together this little movie.  The video quality doesn’t do justice to the images, but it’s a fun walk down the boardwalk, accompanied by the Boss himself and one of the great ones from “The Wild, The Innocent, and The E-Street Shuffle,” “New York City Serenade.”


I know the resolution is terrible — but be sure to select “HQ” in the YouTube panel. Send comments and I’ll post the originals somewhere!
