The Drifters Make For A Fun Saturday Night

The Drifters, a legendary rhythm and blues band dating back to the early 50s, performed last night at the Northshore Performing Arts Center in Bothell.  Of course, this was not the band's original line up, but the concept of the group was carried forward as they entertained a crowd of all ages.
The band performed it's legendary hits, like "Up On The Roof", "Under The Boardwalk", and "Save The Last Dance", as well as pop standards like "Only You" and "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay".
Decked out smartly in tuxes, the band encouraged crowd participation, giving the mike to audience members to sing the chorus of "Under The Boardwalk" which they performed twice and inviting members on to the stage to dance on "The Twist".
