Jeffrey Hunter on What to Wear
Slacks, shirt and a nice pair of polished shoes will do it. Don't want to look like a ragbag.

Kudos, for the Richard Nader Entertainment, Co, for putting on a spectacular show on Saturday Evening. Ben E. King (Drifters) Gene Chandler (Groovy Situation), Bobby Lewis 85 years young, God bless him (Tossin' & Turnin') Joey Dee & The Starliters (Peppermint Twist) showing once again the enduring legacy of Rock & Roll music that will stay with us for ever, and never, ever die. Two of the founding members of the Teenagers (Herman Santiago, Jimmy Merchant) showcasing their extreme longevity (53 years with the group)and magnificent signing arrangements showing once again why the Teenagers are members of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. A show that should not have been missed by anyone.Written on Nov 23 2009

We were 5 people, celebrating a birthday. The show was fabulous. I love the NJPAC because you can see from anywhere and the sound, well, there are few venues that can compete. Also, before the show they had another show. Can't beat it. Thank you goldstar.Written on Nov 22 2009
