Salty’s Beach Bar closing, Fleshwater add show there

Lake Como, NJ bar and venue Salty’s Beach Bar is closing. It had been open for three and a half years, having taken the place of the long-running Paul’s Tavern, and operator Michelle Fontanez had been involved in a legal battle over the space, Asbury Park Press reports. In a message on social media, she wrote:

As I’m sure most have heard all different rumors about Salty’s closing

As most people know I have been in a 2 1/2 year long legal battle over the bar. Never in my wildest dreams could I have anticipated what I’ve dealt with over the last few years. I am happy to say we came to a settlement agreement that I am happy with . While this has been the hardest time in my life I am proud of the fact that I never let anyone push me around or bully me into anything. Trust me when I tell you this was not an easy fight in this town!! That being said I have met some of the best people in the world throughout this experience and for that I wouldn’t change a single thing.. I am very proud of what I did accomplish and will walk away knowing I always gave it my 100%. I want to thank every single one of you who have always believed in and supported Salty’s.

To my amazing staff and promoters that have stayed put and showed up each and every day, even when you haven’t been sure of what has been going on. I thank you from the bottom of my heart 🧡

Salty’s Beach Bar will close its doors permanently on November 3rd 2024. .. I hope to see all of you before then, and remember #staysalty

Fleshwater added a show at the venue before they close, happening on November 1 at Salty’s Beach Bar, with Missing Link and In 2 Again. Presenter Takedown Events writes: 

The stars have aligned… fortune smiled upon us… luck was on our side… in a strange but welcome twist of fate, FLESHWATER is going to be playing Salty’s on November 1st for the last and final show at Salty’s (we did say maybe!). With them MISSING LINK is going to be celebrating their record release for “Watch Me Bleed” and we have IN 2 AGAIN one more time kicking the whole gig off.

Tickets for that show go on sale Friday, October 4 at 10 AM ET.
