NOTES

​

Dave van Ronk was no idiot, and while we would love to have the chance to pick his brain on this one, our best guess is that Bardonia is a little Easter Egg buried amongst his flurry of place names in the Stomp. Perhaps he was curious to see if anyone called him out on throwing a clearly New York town in the mix.

​

Whether he slipped it in as a joke or just had a really inaccurate map, this one bugged the heck out of us. We dug so, so deep to see if there was ever a Bardonia in New Jersey that may have been incorporated into another town ages ago. No such luck.

​

Hopefully we got this right, and Dave's having a laugh on the other side.
