Ocean City concert series canceled over beer ban
The Ocean City weekly beach concert lineup with the Guess Who was canceled after the Worcester County Liquor Control Board denied beer sales at the events. Mayor Mathias said the decision led promoter Cellar Door Entertainment to pull out, fearing attendance drops and a $2.3 million impact on tourism. County Commissioner Granville Trimper condemned beach alcohol, citing family-boardwalk tradition and potential rowdiness.
