St. George Theatre Hosts Ultimate Doo Wop Party 5/8
Experience the ultimate in doo wop as Brooklyn's own Bowzer hosts the Ultimate Doo Wop Party at the St. George Theatre.
Don't miss your chance to see some of the greatest doo wop groups of the era, including: Gene Chandler - The Duke of Earl ("Duke of Earl"), The Crystals ("Da Doo Ron Ron", "He's a Rebel", "Then He Kissed Me"), The Fireflies ("You Were Mine") and of course your host for the evening, Bowzer & The Stingrays!
In 1969, Jon Bauman joined several of his Columbia classmates in "Sha Na Na" and created the character of "Bowzer". With Bowzer the dominant character on stage, Jon was a major force in leading the group into a successful TV series. At its peak, "Sha Na Na" was the #1 syndicated show in America, and was also seen in 32 foreign countries.
From 1962 to 1970, Gene Chandler put half a dozen songs in the top forty, but he will always be best known for the "Duke Of Earl, which topped the pop and R&B charts in 1962 and launched his career.
The Crystals are considered one of the defining acts of the girl group era of the early 1960s. Their 1961-1964 chart hits, included "He's A Rebel", "Da Doo Ron Ron" and "Then He Kissed Me".
