"And the fact that Albert Hall advertises its Saturday night shows as "the Sounds of the Jersey Pines" rubs some locals the wrong way. Bill Salmons, a Pine Barrens native and musician whose wife, Linda, puts on the "picking sessions" at Tuckerton Seaport, said he preferred to avoid the tourist crowds that fill Albert Hall on weekends. "There was no music of the Pines. It was just the people playing on their porches," he said."

Killjoy. :(
