"Fear the Pier" Hurricane Relief Concert...One Year Later

Marking one year since the storm, people still need our help and there is no better way to bring people together than music. Organizers, Amanda Kacperowski of Monsignor Donovan and Sara Brilliant of Toms River North are hosting their 3rd hurricane relief concert,"Fear the Pier." The concert will feature five bands including: Strong Soul from Monmouth County; Radio Activity from Bergen County; Fountain Boulevard from Burlington, N.J.; Alex Costa from New York; and headliner, Before You Exit, an Orlando, FL-based band that recently toured with Olly Murs and Cody Simpson. Decked out in a Halloween theme, a costume contest will take center stage where winners will have an opportunity to win a personal meet and greet with the bands. ALL PROCEEDS will benefit the New Jersey Amusement Association’s, First Responders Fund which has already provided grants to those First Responders and families in need that followed the storm. Tickets for Fear The Pier are on sale now at www.fearthepiernj.eventbrite.com for the November 3rd concert at Hemingway’s Café, Seaside Heights, NJ. VIP tickets are offered at $40 with General Admission tickets costing $20. All are encouraged to come in your best costume for a “fear”ful time! Doors open at 2pm for VIP and 3pm for General Admission. IF you would like to make a tax-deductible donation to this cause, you can do so at www.fearthepiernj.eventbrite.com.
