Makin Waves with Albert Music Hall: 'Be a Part of Our History'
by Bob Makin - published 2024-11-10
One of the greatest musical treasures in New Jersey is Albert Music Hall, the roots venue created in 1974 by the friends of Joe and George Albert of Sayreville. In the 1950s, Joe bought land in Waretown after he and George went hunting there. With his brother and their friends in the thick of the Jersey Pine Barrens, he built a hunting cabin, which they called The Homeplace. On Saturday nights, several of their friends would jam with the Alberts at The Homeplace on old-time, country, bluegrass, folk, and Irish music, as well as Pinelands originals.

'Dinner with Friends' and Dinner, with Your Friends
by Gina Marie Rodriguez, JerseyArts.com - published 2024-11-08
Both the name of a thought-provoking, seminal work of art and a clever night-out suggestion, "Dinner with Friends," produced by Pioneer Productions Company, covers all your bases. The title of Donald Margulies' show doubles as a directive and in this case, signifies a collaboration with Morristown restaurants who are offering discounts to Pioneer audiences.
