2nd Annual Doo-Wop Festival Returns to Vegas

Cincinnati, OH – August 20th 2007 – Cool Bobby B (Bob Backman, host of the nationally syndicated "Doo Wop Stop") is returning to Las Vegas for the 2nd Annual “Cool Bobby B Doo Wop Convention” at the Alexis Park Hotel. The radio show, Cool Bobby B’s Doo Wop Stop, is syndicated on local radio stations throughout the United States and is also available through XM Satellite Radio. Though he is currently based out of Cincinnati, the introduction to his program suggests that when he was a youth in Pennsylvania in the 1950s, he ended up on the wanted list after he broke into a radio station and illegally cranked up the transmitter power to a million watts so he could air his doo-wop records to be heard throughout the eastern portion of the United States.

The doo-wop weekend begins with a reception at 6:30 p.m. November 16th, where fans can meet and mingle with artists at a reception and sock hop. From 12 p.m. until 2 p.m. November 17th, there will be a private autograph session, an amateur doo-wop contest and other events. At 7 p.m. there will be a finale concert.

Among the dozens of groups scheduled to attend the event are Harvey Fuqua And The Moonglows (“Sincerely”); The Fleetwoods (“Mr.Blue”); Jimmy Castor (“I Promise to Remember”); The Edsels Featuring The Reynolds Brothers (“Rama Lama Ding Dong”); Philly Cuzz (“One Summer Night”), The Capris (“There’s a Moon Out Tonight”), The Elegants (“Little Star”), and many more.

Early bird tickets are $129 per person through September, then $149 per person afterwards. Send checks to Cool Bobby B Doo Wop Convention, P.O. Box 43461, Cincinnati, Ohio 45243 or visit www.doowopstop.com

“Last year, people of all ages & from all over the world came to the convention,” said Backman “one lady told me this was just like an old overnight camp, meaning not in a long time had she been on a two day trip with so many people that shared the same interests.”
