That must have been great!! Doo Wop music as a genre became the foundation for many different types of music.

Sunday nights at Hemsby have always been the doowop bands, whats great is unlike some of the other artists from there era, they tend to have continued singind, be in churches or wot eva so they still have that showmanship and quality!
the best i eva saw for that was The Treniers in the 1980s..average age on stage must of been 69!!! :eusa_clap
