Lookin' for last-minute Christmahanukwanzakah gift ideas for that Springsteen fan in your life, and/or maybe even yourself? If you and/or your intended recipient don't mind waiting a bit longer to enjoy your presents, here are two gift ideas that also will help to support some Jersey-Shore-based charities:
Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band x The Stone Pony Charity Tee - Calling it "the last drop of our 50th Anniversary collection," The Stone Pony has teamed up with Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band for an officially licensed shirt based on an original 1970s design by DJ Lee Mrowicki, the Pony's original house DJ. All net proceeds from each shirt will go directly to Community Karma and Mercy Center, two Asbury-Park-based organizations dedicated to highlighting, investing and building the community through its youth.
The shirt is available in both white-on-black and black-on-white designs. Click here for ordering information. IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE PONY: "Due to an overwhelming response, these tees are now on BACKORDER. Any orders placed after December 4 will be processed, but may not be delivered in time for Christmas. Thank you for your generosity, it will go a long way to help the kids!"
Light of Day Winterfest 25 tickets - You also can support another well-known Jersey-Shore-based charity, of course, by purchasing your Light of Day Winterfest 25 tickets, if you haven't done so already. Next month's multi-day series of events is shaping up to be another great mid-January lineup, with the recent addition of Jesse Malin and his band, coming off Malin's triumphant return to live performance earlier this month. All Light of Day Winterfest 25 performances and events will raise money and awareness for the continuing quest to end Parkinson’s disease and its related illnesses ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) and PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.)
