BY STACEY CARLOUGH Staff Reporter When singers and band members from around the country get out their Rand-McNally atlas to plot their summer tours, chances are slim that Newark, Del. will be a stop along the way. While musicians may not hold a specific grudge against the First State, decisions about where to play boil down to good old economics - which act and what location will draw the biggest audience. What Newark does have to offer is the Deer Park Restaurant and Tavern- one of the city's more popular venues to feature live bands - but its building is currently for sale and the new owner may or may not continue this tradition. Manager Leonard Reed says there is an interested buyer, but until details of the sale get worked out, the bar will continue to feature live music.
