Actor Russell Crowe To Bring Indoor Garden Party Concert To NJ

NEW JERSEY — Actor Russell Crowe is returning to New Jersey to bring his "Indoor Garden Party" to the Stone Pony in Asbury Park.

Crowe and his band, the Gentlemen Barbers, will perform at the Monmouth County venue on Aug. 11. Presale tickets were available Wednesday using the code "PONY" while the general sale begins at 10 a.m. Friday, according to the event's website. General admission tickets are $39.50 with VIP packages available.

Lorraine O’Reilly is also slated to showcase her "gorgeous, rasping, powerhouse vocals" during the event, the website states. Tickets are available online.

This isn't the first time Crowe has performed at the Pony. He last played there in August 2001 with his former band, 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, the Asbury Park Press reported.

This year's show replaces an Indoor Garden Party concert previously announced for Aug. 11 at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, according to the Press.

The tour is slated to make more than two dozen stops at pubs, clubs and theatres throughout Europe and the United States.

“I like playing in pubs. It’s what I did growing up. It’s my version of theatre. Even though my day job has a huge claim on my time, I’ve never not played music," Crowe said on the event's website. "My journey to film starts with playing in bands, touring around, releasing records."

The Stone Pony is also celebrating its 50th anniversary. Visit stoneponyonline.com to learn more about the venue.
