A cappella doo wop mingle and sing Mesa AZ April 6

I'm inviting my people to mingle and sing with me at an a cappella doo wop night at City of Mesa Fire Station 202 at 830 S Stapley Drive on Thursday April 6. You are very welcome to invite others including interested youths. Please let me know if you want to be reminded.

FORMAT

I've selected a list of songs that are easy and intuitive for backup, but they all need a solid lead singer. Please also let me know a) which of them you may want to sing lead on and b) whether you already can do a pretty good tribute of the classic rendition lead. We won't do any that don't have a solid lead sponsor, but it's okay if we have multiple people together or tag-teaming lead on any song. I will have guide sheets for all the songs.
