The 19th annual Light of Day festival arrived in Asbury Park the week of January 13th. There were concerts at multiple venues with probably hundreds of performers throughout the week.
The main show is Bob's Birthday Bash which takes place at The Paramount Theatre on the boardwalk.
This years show included many of the performers who are mainstays at the Light of Day shows and wind performing multiple times during the week.
I did not go last year, but compared to previous years, this years show ran very smoothly and did not include acoustic performances between the main sets until later in the show.
Joe Grushecky's band The Houserockers were not able to make it due to bad weather, so he performed with a fill in band dubbed The Asbury Orchestra. The band included the lead guitarist from the Houserockers, Johnny Grushecky, Marc Ribler on guitar, Kenny Aaronson on bass, Danny Clinch on harmonica, the drummer from The Plasmatics and two keyboard players.
I will include the setlist below, with any titles I am unsure of with a question mark.
