I bought that 1998 Show on DVD at Best Buy in 2003 and we have watched it many many times, I have about 250 concerts on DVD. The Flamingos are my favorite doo whop band and they keep advertising this Saturday the Florida Lottery will be at the Paddock Square live broadcast and the Flamingos will be playing at 7pm. If it's them, we will definitely be there.

I've checked the Flamingos website and they don't list any tour. It appears there are two original members left and one tours in the US and the other one lives in the UK and tours in Europe. They don't provide any information with the advertisment and the Florida Lottery Logo is a Flamingo Bird, so it's somewhat confusing what they are really talking about. You would think they would be promoting a show like that in a better way.
