2009 Annual Picnic in the
Park to feature
The RB Express Doo Wop Group
|
On Sunday, October 11th, The RB Express will perform
on the Village Green in the heart of Lincroft as part
of the Annual Picnic in the Park celebration, hosted
by the Lincroft Village Green Association (LVGA).
The Picnic in the Park will take place from 1:00 to
5:00 PM and will feature free food, refreshments and
entertainment all afternoon, thanks to the generosity
of Lincroft businesses (past sponsors
list). There will be a clown, face painting and
balloons. The popular Lincroft band “Bad Parents”
will warm up the crowd to RB Express's performance.
Picnic goers should bring a chair or blanket for sitting
on the lawn.
The RB Express exemplifies the tight harmonies and
rhythms of early street corner doo-wop and have performed
with such artists as Frankie Lymon's Teenagers, Little
Anthony and The Imperials, The Tokens, Larry Chance
and The Earls, The Passions, The Dimensions, Richard
Street's Temptations Review, Felix Cavaliere and The
Young Rascals, The Happenings, Lou Christie, and The
Angels. They have also appeared in the movie, "The
Old Man and the Seymore", and on television with
"Fox and Friends". Having completed two
albums, “On the Scene”, and "Back
on Track", the RB Express will soon be returning
to the studio to record their long-awaited 3rd album
in the hope of continuing to spread the gospel of
doo-wop to fans both old and new.
This is the 7th event hosted by the LVGA at the
Green and it promises to be one of the best. So mark
your calendars and remember to bring a lawn chair. In
case of rain, check this website for information for
a raindate.
