I've seen them once at each square, and I'm catching my fourth show tonight at LSL, I'll be leaving early because it will be packed.

This is a band that plays the roots of rock n' roll, Buddy Holly, the Everly Brothers, Chuck Berry, Roy Orbinson, to name a few. Be there or be square. Here's a sample.

Johnny Dee and the Starlights - Legends in Concert: BUDDY, ROY and HANK - YouTube

They've had 3 backup girl singers everytime I've seen them, the photo only shows 2 girls, but they've had a 3rd girl, a red head everytime. Johnny, not his real name, has played Buddy Holly in the play The Buddy Holly Story and auditioned for Broadway traveling version and won the part but had to back out because he has two young children.

I've seen Johnny Dee and the Starlights three times also. They are great. The three girls (the Starlets) were there with one change I noticed the last time.

The Buzzcatz are not the same for comparison as far as material goes. Forget the video and check them out at their next performance. It would be interesting to hear your take.
