“My staff and I wanted to do something to help the victims of the storm,” explained Weiskopf. “I had contacted them [iPlay America] originally to see if we could have a concert there and they said they were having The B Street Band on Nov. 17 and asked if we would like to team up with them.”

Weiskopf further explained that Bob McDaid, owner of iPlay America and Encore Event Center has donated the band and venue. All ticket money will be donated to the United Way of Monmouth County to help those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
