Exclusive: Count Basie announces second Hope Concert
Yep, they're doing two in one night...
This holiday season, get ready for twice the Hope in Red Bank.
The Count Basie Theatre exclusively announced to the Asbury Park Press Wednesday morning that it will host "... And Even More HOPE," an encore staging of this year's hotly anticipated Hope Concert 8, at 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 23.
Presented by Jersey Shore guitar hero Bobby Bandiera and Friends, the concert will feature Jon Bon Jovi, Southside Johnny Lyon, Gary U.S. Bonds and John Cafferty. Funds raised by the concert will support Mary's Place by the Sea in the Ocean Grove section of Neptune, which works to support women during and after cancer treatment.
Tickets, which range from $50 to $500, go on sale at noon on Friday through www.thebasie.org, 732-842-9000 or at the Basie box office, 99 Monmouth St., Red Bank.
With a previously-announced 7 p.m. show benefiting the Visiting Nurse Association Health Group, 180 Turning Lives Around and the Basie's Arts for All initiative in the Red Bank Borough Middle School, 2015 marks the first year that two Hope Concerts have been performed on the same evening.
All told, the Hope Concerts have raised almost $3 million for local charities since 2003.
