Bowzer always puts on a great show, and this one was no exception. Joey Dee, Freddy Cannon, Shirley Alson Reeves, Jay Siegel's Tokens, the Original Comets were all in terrific form and full of energy. Freddy "Boom-Boom" Cannon lived up to his name, rocking the house. Jay Siegel still sings "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" in the original key of F, and lets the audience sing along to an encore! The Original Comets (from Bill Haley and his Comets) still wail on the saxophone and drums like it was 1954! Bowzer knows how to entertain an audience! Between his stories, classical piano performance, amazing rendition of Blue Moon, and high energy audience participation numbers with is group, "Bowzer and the Stingrays", there was never a dull moment! For fans of the TV show "Sha Na Na", or the movie Grease, Johnny Contardo performed a few of his most requested numbers. He even sang "Lovers Never Say Goodbye" with Bowzer, as they did in the 1970s! The Band - Rocky and the Rollers - is amazing! They have played for many original artists from the 1950s and 1960s as well as headline on their own. They make each performance sound like the original record by being true to the original music. Bowzer, Johnny Contardo, and the Original Comets even came out for a meet-and-greet after the show.

We have gone to this for several years now because we always love it and really enjoy seeing the original entertainers,and hear great music "of our time". It "transports us" out of the present and provides great entertainment.

I have been to most of Bowzer's Doo Wop shows at Mohegan Sun and have enjoyed each one of them...The quality of entertainment is always excellent! The only regret I have from this past concert is the fact that none of the groups were out in the meet and greet area after the show...We always look forward to meeting the groups for pictures and autographs!

Just bringing back all the memories was a real treat. Seeing the original performers was such a 'big deal'. Loved that Bowser pushed for Truth in Music and appreciate all his efforts. Feel 30 years younger and enjoying the feeling.....

Bowzer got political. It wasn't the place and made no sense at all. Left at intermission Posted a picture of Trump, Weinstein etc- nobody was interested and it tainted what would have been an amazing show

If you are a fan of Rock and Roll and Doo Wop, this is a great show. I honestly didn't realize these acts were still performing, and they are the originals, which is key. The only slight issue I had was the length of the show, it was a tad on the long side, averaging just over 3 hours. I think 2 hours might have been sufficient, but really good talent and the music and memories will last forever.

The show was similar to past ones and was pretty enjoyable overall. I was extremely disappointed to see Jay Black on the stage once again. He's at least 5 years past the point where he can perform. I emailed Bowzer two years ago to tell him but he persist on bringing Jay back. If he's on the show next year, I will sit it out.

From the first act to the last we were rocking in our seats. The show was great. Could not believe how fast the time flew by. Jay Black was emotional and so was the crowd. Bowzer's tribute to him was inspirational.

The show was awesome. Will look forward to seeing the new show next year. The only moment of the show that was sad was seeing the failing Jay Black. My husband and I have seen him several times and were stunned at his appearance. We were heartbroken for him.

This is by far the ABSOLUTE BEST concert I attend during the year. Bowzer puts together the greatest performers ALL ORIGINAL ACTS. If you love doo wop or oldies it is a must see show. 3 hours of nothing but great music. This year he had 2 of the original comets (aged 83 & 93) and they sounded as good today as they did back then (including a 3 minute drum solo by the original drummer aged 93). Sadly I wasn't born when these acts were performing originally but I've always loved the music. Can't wait till next year to see year 17 !!!!!! Just wish Jay Black was healthier and Kenny Vance would return.

Bowzer's show was great as usual lasting nearly 4 hours.. We have been to every show Bowzer has put on at Mohegan Sun Casino in CT for the last 16 years.. He had a couple of new acts we hadn't seen before.. but it was sad to see Jay Black from Jay & the Americans come out on stage to close the show.. I have followed Jay's onstage shows for the better part of 20 years.. Have watched every show when he performed in the Wolf Den.. We knew he was sick and hadn't performed for a long time which we found out was at least 14 months.. although Jay's voice came through during a couple of songs, he was not able to sing most of his trademark songs.. I think it is a tribute to Bowzer to have let Jay come out for what has to be him saying Good Bye to his faithful fans.. I doubt we will be seeing Jay Black again.. I am a 69 year old man who had tears in my eyes several times during his performance.. because I knew what was happening.. My heart goes out to the wonderful crowd in attendance at Bowzer's Show who cheered and gave Jay Black a standing ovation... I was at the Bowzer show at Mohegan Sun for what turned out to be Johnny Maestro and the Brooklyn Bridges last performance back on Jan 17, 2010 and I feel the people who were in attendance have witnessed the last Performance of Jay Black.. Bowzer was in tears & crying while closing the show which only affirms my fears... but we will be at Bowzer's show next Jan to see what has be be one of the finest shows around !! Thank you again Bowzer for showing such compassion and allowing Jay Black on stage one last time

What a GREAT SHOW!!! We had seats on the 'floor level' but with the height of the stage the seats were wonderful! Bowzer always puts on such a high energy show and this was no different. People were clapping and singing to the music...even dancing in the aisles! The cast of performers was great...Freddie Cannon, Lou Christie, The Flamingos, The Capris, Bill Haleys Comets, The Tokens, The Chrystals ....Kid Kyle and even a surprise appearance by Jay Black! The show started about 3:08 and wasn't over till 6:45....WOW! How can you beat that!!! We have always gone to Bowzers show here at the Mohegan Sun Arena and NEVER been disappointed! Its just a great show! The way the arena is situated I would say the only areas I wouldn't want to sit in would be the 1st sections on either side of the stage or way up high. Everything else is good!

Except for two performances, which I will not name, I enjoyed the entire show . I would never slander any performer publicly. The songs performed brought back so many memories and I felt as though I was back in the 50's and 60's. Good job to Jon "Bowzer" Bauman hosting the entire revue!!!! Loved it! The songs performed had a variety to please everyone!

This series of shows have always been great. An unbelievable value. There is no way anyone is getting rich at these ticket prices - the reason so many performers are included in these shows is certainly not the money and it shows in every single performance: they love performing and it shows. The talent that the performers exhibit after 50, 60 and more years is astonishing. Bowzer is a great host, his love of the music is apparent throughout the show. Bowzer is Bowzer but every now and then you see the real Jon Bauman and realize that he is a very human, very down to earth, very likeable guy. This show went from 3pm to around 7:30 or so with a 15 minute break.

Would love for John Bowzer Bauman to know that he is one class act. He is obviously multi-talented and has a knack of putting together great talent of our era! Every act was enjoyable!

My husband and I love going to these shows. These groups bring back a lot of memories from when we were young. It seems that every year we lose some of these great performers and it's wonderful to have a venue where while they can still entertain their fans. One complaint that I have is about the loudness of the music when some of the performers sing. Sometimes the music drowns out the singers' voices. During this Mohegan Sun concert, Jay Black was having some trouble singing due to some health issues. The band was so loud that he had to struggle to be heard. When he sang Cara Mia and This Magic Moment though, the band played softer and he was his wonderful self.

I took my grandson who is six and he was focused through the entire show. The show, counting a 15 minute intermission, was 3 3/4 hours long. Each performer was excellent and Bowzer must be commended for presenting such a great entertaining performance.

Have seen about the last three of these shows. Had great fun, great nostalgia for me and people like me who grew up with the music between 1955 and 1961. Have seen Jay Black twice in past 2 or 3 years and seeing him this time was very sad as there have been major changes. He is and has been a great performer and talent and wish him well. One thing that stands out is that you can close your eyes and listen to the performers and there is very little change to how they sounded 70+ years ago! Great show, great entertainment and brings back our glory days when we grew up with the music! The memories really flow with the old songs and old performers.

Overall the show was good. However,letting Jay Black come on stage and embarrass himself was uncalled for. Bowser should have stepped in sooner. Do I feel bad for Jay Black,yes. Should this have been allowed to happen,definately not! On the bright side,Freddie"BOOM-BOOM"Cannon and LaLa Brooks brought back a lot of good memories.

The performers were amazing at their age. The only complaint I have is that Bowzers used a picture of president elect Donald Trump in part of his act . it was very distasteful and we were quite taken back that Bowzer would do this. Many people in our section and throughout were offended and it made me not want to attend something he does again. Disrespectful!

Seeing the Crystals, Tokens, Flamingos, doing their hits was great. Hearing the songs of our generation is always a treat. A time where you could understand the lyrics and there was great sounds from the singers. The only down point was Jay Black. Sorry to say it is time for him to stop singing. It is sad to see one of the GREATEST singers of the time, to be reduced to what he is today.

Every year we go to this show because it is so great. We really enjoy it. This year Jay Black had a hard time but it was so great to see him and that he was there with the other greats doing his best. Every year we keep coming back. If you like the music from the 50's and 60's, you'll love this show.

Show was too long. Jay Black should not have been there. He was sad to see. Most of the performers were good especially the Tokens, La La Brooks, and the Flamingos. Others were ok for their age. Lou Christie should stop trying to hit the high notes

Great Acts - Good Show until the last two acts Lou Christie cannot hit the high notes any more - however, he made a good effort Jay Black was an embarrassment - He admittedly did not rehearse for 14 months and it showed - did not sing to the music, missed lines, and he was so bad I walked out after his third song

Bowser is the Best MC! He, the Stingrays and Rocky & the rollers were great! Johnny Contardo is Fabulous! Wish he could have sung a couple more numbers. Freddie Cannon was in very good voice but how many times can you hear the same verse of Palisades Park? It also felt like he was begging for applause - look, I come to a concert to be entertained and see the show, not to be repeatedly encouraged to stand up on order, blocking the people's view, etc. Shirely Reeves looks and sounds terrific. Jay Siegel's voice just gets better and better every time I see him-fantastic! The Comets were mind-blowing - all 3 of them were SOOO good, but to hear an 82 yr old sax player and 92 yr old drummer play like that was a once in a lifetime experience - more talent than people 1/4 their ages-just remarkable! All in all a fantastic show that I would definitely see again!

This show was one of the best shows. I have ever seen. The music was excellent and it all sounded great. I would definitely go see it again. Anybody that enjoys the 60's music, should go see it. Bowzer will never change. I wished it would have lasted more than the 2 1/2 hours. I didn't want to leave.

This show was amazing! Bowser has more talents then just flexing his macaroni arms and trying to catch flys with his open mouth. He is an accomplished musician and singer. He presented a number of golden oldies groups and there was no disappointment at all. Well worth the money and very high in entertainment value. Thank you Bowser!

This show was amazing. There was never a dull moment. Even tho, the performers were up in age they performed like years ago. Every act was great. Especially Bowzer himself it was like watching him on Sha Na Na. He was funny and talented and did a great job hosting and performing. Every thing he did was great. They had us rocking in our seats. From the youngest to the oldest I don't think anyone was disappointed. Looking forward to his next event at Mohigan Sun.

Never been to a better show than this !!!!! If you love the oldies and Doo-Wop you HAVE to see this show !!!!!!!! Bowzer gets all the original acts NOT COVER GROUPS - If they are still alive and performing he'll get them. Sadly over the years that I've been attending I've only gotten to see some acts once as it has been they're final performance - either death or retirement/illness - but at least I can say I SAW THEM LIVE !!!!!!! This is a MUST if you enjoy that music !!!!!!!!!!!

I think this was the best Bowzer show I've seen. He had great acts and lots of them. We were totally impressed with the Comets - 92 year old drummer and 82 year old saxophonist! Bowzer was funny and kept us all entertained in between acts. He, by the way, is a phenomenal pianist. Really enjoyed the show.

I bought these tickets as Christmas Gift, for my parents, and it was fun to see them enjoy a trip down memory lane. I saw many families taking in this show, and it was a fun atmosphere. There was a lot of interaction with the crowd, folks were doing the twist and slow dancing in the aisles. Bowzer is planning to be back next January (Sunday of MLK weekend) and it's always a great take.

Fairly long show (3.5 hours) with a 15 minute break. Lot of very memorable acts with big hits (several one hit wonders), but most still have strong voices and sounded almost like the late 50's and early 60's all over again. Bowser and his "new" band the Stingrays played for about 45 minutes following the break and sounded good. He really is a talented musician and strives to maintain the integrity of the performancer (wants only original singers). Two negatives...his mike was too loud and difficult to hear on some occasions and our seats we in the last row of section 105...almost behind the stage ("best available").

Little Anthony and the Imperials...The Chiffons...The Tokens...Larry Chance and the Earls...The Toys...Kenny Vance and the Planetones...The Fleetwoods, The Jarmals and Bowzer's own Sting Rays kept us on our feet throughout the show. Jay Trainor, the original Jay of Jay and the Americans, sang with the Tokens and also on his own. Kenny Vance, who was also once with Jay and the Americans sang an American's hit. We've been to 10 of Bowzer's 11 shows and it gets better all the time. The Sun is a great music venue. Already looking forward to Bowzer Volume 12.

Enjoyed the show more this year than in the past three years. I liked the fact that it was shorter by cutting out the filler acts and entertainment (such as the hula hoop contest). It was 3.5 hours rather than 4 hours. I think it could also cut out the dance competition with the audience and simply concentrate on the acts. Three hours would be long enough. Jay Trainer was a big surprise. What an awesome voice and he wasn't even one of the featured acts! Hopefully, there will be some new acts next year.

This is one of the best oldies concert that i have been to. Having the original members of the groups make it so much more enjoyable. It was wonderful to see that all of the original singers still sound great. It was like listening to them 40 years ago. Had a great time

Bowzer's Doo Wop show was a great lineup. The Arena was very easy to find and the seats (upper section) were very good! The only con was the sound system was not perfect. At times, the bass and band were louder than the group singing... It was a great weekend and worth it still.

The trip from NY to MA was totally worth it. Although my best friend and I are in our early 40s, we have loved 50s music and Sha Na Na since we were nine years old. Seeing Bowzer, Johnny and Lenny again was incredible. The other acts were also awesome. Even the music played during the breaks were fantasic. The intimate venue and the revolving stage made every seat great. Will definitely be going back, probably with mom, hubby and my son (who also loves 50s rock and roll)!

An Amazing Show. All singers performed well. Gene Chandler and Peggy Marsh were unforgettable as was Bowzer himself both when he sang and played the piano. What a talent he is. The band was fantastic especially the Chandler drummer. Loved the other groups also as well as Lenny & John of Sha Na Na.

My wife and I attended Bowzer's Doo Wop Show at the South Shore Music Circus on Saturday night . It was FANTASTIC, yes, sometimes the audio was hard to hear but, hey, you're in a tent. It was great seeing Bowzer, Lenny & Johnny, such great voices. My favorite was Herb Reed's Platters. These people weren't imitators as you sometimes see on TV or at other shows,. The audience participation was great, with the hula hoops and dancing. We would definitely see the show again if it was to come back to the tent.

Bowzers Ultimate Doo Wop Party was the BOMB!!!! It was non-stop FUN! From Beginning to End - Smiles - Laughing - Audience Participation - Everyone was singing & Dancing! The best part was hearing Gene Chandler performing I Only Have Eyes For You, this was my wedding song and it happen to be my Anniversary that evening, Needless to say I was so Happy I cried and made my husband tear up as well! Seeing ORIGINAL members from Sha Na Na brought me back to when I was MUCH younger and watching them on TV - Lenny has not lost his voice, and Johnny - Has not either! This performance as a whole brough me back to a happy place where things were not as rough as they are now - it was WONDERFUL to be able to get out and enjoy an evening, and still talk about it a week later!

The show was a lot of fun. When the 3 former members of Sha, Na, Na performed together they were phenomenal. Gene Chandler was fantastic too. The "problem" is that the sound quality at the South Shore Music Circus isn't very good. I noticed this 2 years ago while attending a Susan Tedeschi concert there. The vocals are distorted, and in the case of this show, often times the vocals could not be heard over the music.

Can't say enough good things about the show! To be able to see the Platters, Gene Chandler, Bowzer & others from Sha Na Na, Peggy March - awesome. The energy, joy & fun that they all put into their performances brought so much pleasure to all attending the show!

Every summer I take my son to see Bowzers Ultimate Doo Wop Party. My son is a 33 year old autistic man and Bowzer is his hero. This year I bought tickets to the show as soon as they went on sale. We had front row seats and my son was so jazzed. He was able to participate in the hula hoop contest and he talked to Bowzer after the show. This is always a fun concert. The old doo wop groups are always great. This year the Platters, Gene Chandler, and Little Peggy March were featured. So great, so much fun. It was a great evening. My son was so happy!

This was a good show, but admittedly, this is not my kind of music. My wife grew up listening to this stuff via her dad. I must say the show was very good. The crowd interaction was fantastic and the band was great. I would definitely recommend this show to my parents or someone in their 60's who grew up with this music.

WOW!!! What a Show. What a Night.. It was like no other I had Ever seen. From start to finish, it was Awesome. My favorite naturally was Johnny Contardo, I have loved him since Day 1 of Sha na na. Even with his gray hair and a few extra pounds, "The Voice" is still there. Lenny was good too, glad he could make it for the show. I danced, sang, and got autographs, and met one of my all time idols Peggy March. "I Will Follow Him" has been going around in my head for the last 40+ yrs. My hubby enjoyed especially seeing Bowzer as we both had a great time on the South Shore. Soooooooo glad we went.

Very entertaining for the 60 - 80 year old demographic; not really a Doo Wop Party - more of a combination of do wop and soft rock from the late 50's to the late 50's. Somewhat corny and drawn out in terms of Bowser's comments, but the music and talent is solid. Several of these performers, while still able to do their thing, will not be with us for much longer. If you are "stuck in the 50's or 60's" this is a must see featuring original golden hit artists!

Bowzer's shows are always fun and something we look forward to every year. That being said...I must tell you all how my heart jumped in my throat when Jay Black of Jay and the Americans hobbled onto the stage to sing his most famous Cara Mia. Jay looks frail and sickly. While he makes fun of his age (76) and his state of health (most definitely not good) he still has the voice we all fell in love with. So I had to close my eyes and let my mind absorb the music. But tears welled up when I focused on him. Love ya Jay! And thanks, Bowzer, for what very well could be the last time we see him perform.
