Press release from Count Basie Theatre

Jon Bon Jovi & The Kings of Suburbia have announced a benefit concert to take place on Wednesday, July 30 at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank. Net proceeds from the performance will benefit the city’s Parker Family Health Center, a free health care facility.

Tickets, priced at $500, $150, $125, $99 and $50 (plus applicable surcharges), go on sale Wednesday, July 2 at noon ET through countbasietheatre.org, phone charge at 732-842-9000, and the theatre box office, located at 99 Monmouth Street in Red Bank. A limit of two (2) tickets per person will be imposed, and repeat orders will be cancelled. Ticketing information for Jon Bon Jovi fan club and Count Basie Theatre members will be sent to those patrons separately.

On this rarest of occasions, Jon Bon Jovi will perform solo with his local side band The Kings of Suburbia. These are exciting performances where attendees can expect to hear a collection of their favorite Bon Jovi hits mixed with classic rock and roll songs.

Founded in 2000, the Parker Family Health Center provides primary health care free of charge to low- income, uninsured Monmouth County residents. The clinic logged 11,888 patient-visits in 2013, with over 100,000 cumulative visits since the founding. Thirty-four percent of patients were from Red Bank, with the rest from all parts of Monmouth County. Health care is provided by a network of 250 volunteers who donate 10,000 hours of service annually at the clinic.

Remember: Nothing makes a Red Bank friend happier than to hear "I saw you on Red Bank Green!"
