Having already whetted your appetite with features this week on Martin Short, Roger McGuinn, Paint the Town Pink, M Shanghai String Band and the
return of the Red Bank International Film Festival, today’s edition of Red Bank oRBit fires up
the grill for some more smokin’ stuff going on right in our own back yard.

There’s Friday’s presentation of Writers in the Raw at the Count Basie Theatre,
where a motley group of musical talents (including the redoubtable David
Johansen, pictured) assemble for a once-in-a-lifetime set of songs and
stories. We got the story, too, straight from producer Gordon Brown.

On Saturday, we alert you to the latest in what may well be a bloody
successful series of Asbury Park Zombie Walk — but are we the only ones who
noticed the awkward pairing of this so-called “viral outbreak” with the
South-of-the-Border theme for the city’s concurrent First Saturday event?

Finally, on Sunday, it’s time to take the sea air with the dedicated runners of the
New Jersey Marathon in Long Branch — where frequent oRBiter (and Jersey
Shore Running Club officer) Laura Schneider stands prepared to pass out
orange slices to grateful marathoners.

We’ve got you covered, day and night,
indoors and out — all this weekend in Red Bank oRBit.
