the twist often wins the crowds cause it's so easy to do.

last month, a band photographer called me "pops"...i'll be turning 56 soon...

Jeez, John, you're just a kid! Get a grip, buddy! :rolleyes:

But really, aren't they around 70 now?

Frankie Avalon is 68 (born 9/18/39).
Fabian is 64 (born 2/6/43)
Bobby Rydell is 65 (born 4/26/42, one day after my wife).

My wife and I saw them in at Harrah's in Atlantic City on May 5, less than a week before the concert Dwight attended. I only had a small Canon P&S with me; I got a few nice photos when F.A. stopped for several minutes to croon to the two hotties sitting in front of me, but my photos are not nearly as nice as what Dwight got.

Dwight, what equipment and settings did you use?

I also got some shots of them backstage (we had VIP passes from a friend who works at Harrah's). Bobby Rydell was the most personable; we talked to him about his hip surgery, which he had done at Bryn Mawr hospital in suburban Philadelphia, which is part of a hospital system been a client of ours for over 15 years. Fabian was also very nice and, on his own initiative, posed with my wife so I could get a nice shot of them. Frankie Avalon was not very interested in talking with anyone, even though my wife mentioned to him that she had known his grandmother and uncle. Avalon's son was also there, and in contrast with his father, he was very interested in talking with us. Rydell's mother was also there and talked with us as if she had known us for years. Told us how much she was worried that her son had lost so much weight following his operation.

The hair pieces are definitely a little much, but, obviously that isn't Dwight's fault...

When will men realize than natural baldness is far more attractive than any rug could ever be?

Nice shots as always.

Frankie Avalon made a point to say his hair was still his real hair.

Jerry, all data on equipment is in EXIF that is embedded in the images themselves ... you need to read the FAQ and get the Opanda browser plugin that will display that information when present.

I expect that the shows are very choreographed, including comments on hair pieces and where and how long Frankie mingles with the audience. But choreographed or not, they do a good show and I expect that when Bobby can motivate it is even better.
