It will be a night of beauty, sadness and tears.

And rock 'n' roll, too.

The members of the Smithereens will pay tribute their late frontman, Pat DiNizio, Saturday, Jan 13, at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank in a night called “Time and Time Again: A Celebration of the Life of Pat DiNizio” The band — Jim Babjak, Dennis Diken, Mike Mesaros and Severo Jornacion — will perform Smithereens songs with guest vocalists, the Basie has announced.

So far, Stevie Van Zandt of the E Street Band and the Disciples of Soul has been named as a guest. Patty Smyth and Scandal also will perform. The show originally was scheduled to be part of the Citi Presents Little Steven’s Underground Garage at the Basie, with the Smithereens and Smyth and Scandal, but now is being reconfigured in light of the passing of DiNizio, who died Tuesday, Dec. 12, at the age of 62.

“I was set to host this Smithereens and Patty Smyth and Scandal show as part of Citi’s Underground Garage at the Basie series,” said Van Zandt in a statement. “With the sudden, tragic passing of Pat DiNizio, I think it’s appropriate that we take this moment to pay tribute to him. I will be honored to sing a few of his songs with the band, and I’m asking any friends of mine if they can make themselves available for a song or two. We’ll see who’s around and announce them shortly.”

The show will be staged in the Basie’s new, open-floor club concert set-up.

Tickets went on sale Monday, Dec. 18, and quickly sold out.

A portion of ticket sales will go towards the establishment of the Pat DiNizio Musical Performance Scholarship at the Basie’s Performing Arts Academy.

DiNizio, of Scotch Plains, is being mourned across the entertainment and show business worlds. The Stone Pony in Asbury Park put “We Will Miss You: RIP Pat DiNizio” on its marquee over the weekend. The Smithereens song, “A Girl Like You,” was played going into a commercial break of the Raiders and Cowboys NFL football game on NBC on Sunday, Dec. 17.
