i love these shows, they wear nice clothes. no torn jeans, no rags, no swearing, no destroying guitars. no overly loud music. great shows.

My wife went to high school with Bowzer. They were in some classes together. I met him at one of the high school reunions.

At 80yo, I remember in the 1990’s going to Hershey Park to see the oldies shows including Bowzer’s shows. Thanks for posting this video, it brings tears to my eyes and happy memories once again to my life.

It's so good to see and hear Bowzer again! I never missed Sha-Na-Na back in the day.

I've been into Doo Wop for over 50yrs now. Love it..

Jay Seigel, WOW! Bowzer is right. Close your eyes and he sounds the same! Thank you for posting this whole show!

Love this music!

Damn these older acts sound better than the people performing today. And they don't use autotune

The love these musicians had for their music is very visible, good times!!!

Awww... I was kinda hoping to hear Bowzer sing!

I was going to work in 1973 and came across a massive crowd around the Duluth, Minnesota Arena. Turns out it was people going to a Sha-Na-Na concert. Wow. Still goin'.

Bowzer survived the Match Game Hollywood Squares hour 40 years later.

Jay Siegel's voice is still so crazy good even into his 80s.

I was at that show with the wife and daughter...the clovers and the dubs were my favorite...the 2 original members of them 2 groups still, singing at the ripe old ages of 91 and 94....thanks for keeping the music alive..❤

Wow! These guys are "AWESOME" still got it going on "Thank you so much for the wonderful oldies. God Bless all of you

What a great bunch of guys so remarkable and so amazing to see Bowler again I sure do miss this great music God blew them all❤❤

There’s nothing more rock-n-roll than age-related back surgery!

He was my favorite when they were on television. Love him!

Was great to find this. Saw Sha Na Na back in the day. Was good to see Bowser was putting out quality live shows. Bowser is a talented and productive musician.

Love him

Bowser renews my faith in my country when he says 'God Bless America' because I know he is a through and through Democrat to this day even though I vote otherwise. That reminds me we are still one people with different certain priorities.

I absoletly love do wop music. I wasn't a teenagers in the 50s but love this music and the harmonies.

I love these guys

Jay Siegel Tokens !!! Just amazing !!!!

Lala Brooks sounds amazing.

Sha na na

God Bless you Bowzer for bringing Jay Black one last time in 2017 !!!

Of course Sha Na Na fans know this, but how many others know that Bowzer entered Julliard at age 12 for his piano playing? Loved his baritone voice, but my favorite was Dr. Scott Powell aka Santini.

Big love for Bowser. Every since Woodstock. Sha-Na-Na was cool.

Many times they are over looked, the back up musicians are excellent, true professionals!.

Good lord, younger people will listen to oldies after seeing this.

It's funny you say that. I'm a big medal head. I normally go to see bands like Anthrax and slipknot. People were shocked when I told them i was excited to finally get tickets to see this show coming up.

Thank you so much for this!

Estan hechos pelota pero todavia afinan y sin autotune ni filtros ni nada..Leyendas !

Rocky and the Rollers used to play on the Victory casino cruise ship and they packed the place every time. Best oldies band in the state of Florida by far!

I would like to thank you for posting this video. My husband and I attended almost every doowop and oldies concert that came to South Florida from the 90's until a couple of years ago. Due to the pandemic and several health issues, we have not been able to attend any concerts during the last few years. It is so nice of you and other people who post these shows, so that other doowop and oldies lovers like myself can enjoy them. I watched this entire video last night and enjoyed it so much. The quality was great, the artists were all wonderful and I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your taking the time to post these awesome shows.

even Babe Ruths last swing was epic !!!!!!

been to 4 of them they put on great show I went to this one 👍

timeless!!

I also worked with Bowser and his Thunderbirds in 1989 or 1990 at Six Flags in Jackson, NJ and a job in Long Island at a private party. Jay and The tokens were at Six Flags with my group. Their was only two original Duprees in the group at that time. Mike Arnone and myself Tom Bialoglow. Billy was with Jay back then but he has since passed.

CLASSIC GOLD

Bowzer

Great show. I had tickets for this show but couldn't make it. THANK YOU.

Bowser from sha na na and author fonzerrelli

Great job recording the first half of the show! Excellent!! Not sure if you did the second half also! I was there at the show! As a matter of fact, I have attended all 21 shows at Mohegan. Bowzer does a great job putting all these shows together! Also responsible for many other acts that perform up there! Thank you!!

In the mid 1980s the partnership between Blandon and Still ended, with each forming their own version of The Dubs. Still's group included lead Leslie Anderson, Bernard Jones, John "Spider" Truesdale and Steve Brown. This group, minus Brown, still performs. (From wikipedia) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dubs

The Crystals had a few 5 lead singers. Dolores "LaLa" Brooks sang lead on "Then He Kissed Me" and "Then He Kissed Me" on the original recording.

Come on Bowzer, I know you can find better performers than these !! I re-tract this comment to say that this is actually an incredible show !! I was feeling sorry for myself when I posted my comment. I can't perform no more and was feeling sorry for myself. I apologize !!!

I think that the performers on this show did a great job. I don't know if you are a performer but you have to have a great ego to get up in front of an audience. And you have to have the goods and deliver them to an audience. I happen to know Frank Pizzaro and he has a great voice. I also worked with Chris Montez for two weeks at the Apollo and Howard theaters in 1962. I also did a show with Johnny Contardo in Port jefferson, Long Island a few years ago. So I've been around the block and i know talent when I hear it. Tom Bialoglow founding member of The "Original Duprees.
