Nelson has been no stranger to Jersey Shore venues over the years, making repeat appearances at both the Lakewood BlueClaws’ home of FirstEnergy Park and the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank. But, as far as we can tell, this show marks the first time the 83-year-old outlaw country icon performs at the legendary Asbury Park venue.

But there seems to have been an inadvertent hint of Nelson’s appearance earlier this year: when modern country star Kenny Chesney played (inside) the Pony in May, he covered Nelson’s “Whiskey River.”
