Join us for an entertaining night of Oldies and take a walk down memory lane to celebrate our country’s veterans!

A LIVE concert featuring Jay Siegel's TOKENS, The HAPPENINGS, and The First Ladies of Rock and Soul. Co-hosted by Lou Costello and Steve Kurtz of Cruisin' 92.1 FM WVLT.


In 1961 JAY SIEGEL'S TOKENS, four boys from Brooklyn, recorded, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" on the RCA label. The song soared up the charts to become the number one hit in the nation!

THE HAPPENING’S major hit was "See You In September" (1966) which was originally recorded by The Tempos in 1959. Their recording of Carole King and Gerry Goffin composition “Go Away Little Girl” was a Billboard Top 20 hit single in 1966. Their cover of “Runaround Sue” was a doo-wop number one hit for Dion in 1961.

If you love to dance and have a good time, you'll love The First Ladies of Rock and Soul! Songs by The Supremes, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, The Shirelles, The Marvelletes, Mary Wells. Memorable songs including "Da Do Ron Ron," "Going to the Chapel," "Be My Baby," "Too Many Fish in the Sea," "Stop! In the Name of Love," "The Locomotion," "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?"

You're going to enjoy this electrifying performance!
