Joestock: The First Annual Rockland-Bergen Music Festival
Bassist Johnny Pisano at the first annual Rockland-Bergen Music Festival When you're Jersey Shore musician, Stone Caravan frontman Joe D'Urso, you don't just throw a party on your fiftieth birthday. You throw a music festival. Birthday Boy Joe D'Urso And when you're Joe--a longtime promoter of charitable causes--you make the day really count, collecting proceeds for Light of Day and WHYHunger and other worthy charities. You outfit the German Masonic Park in Tappan, New York with two stages, offer free admission to anybody born in 1964, and invite your friends to come out and play. Because your friends just happen to be legends of the New York/Jersey Shore/national music scene, word spreads among music fans, and enthusiastic concertgoers spread out blankets and lawn chairs under a perfect blue sky The result? A perfect summer celebration of music and the folks who love it. with Diane Lynn Gotaski Pastrick photo of Kiley Armstrong b...
