33 states have laws that to use the name of the band it must have an original member. BST meets that requirement since Bobby Colomby, an original founder still manages the band. I think he is the only survivor of the original founders. In addition, the use Bo Brice and advertise him as part of the band therefore not sending a message that original members are there. A couple of the performers have been with the group for a decade or more but they rotate in and out since they have jobs with other bands. Trivia fact: The driving force behind naming rights has been Jon Bauman (Bowzer from Sha Na Na). His legislation is known as the Truth in Music Act.
