An evening of all the hits mixed with stories about Tommy and the Shondells made this concert such a fun event. The audience rocked along as Tommy sang all the great songs that brought back so many memories. Got a picture taken with Tommy during the “meet and greet” - he couldn’t have been nicer

Tommy James & The Shondells Biography
Tommy James' road to superstardom began when a nightclub DJ in Pittsburgh discovered a two-year-old record by "The Shondells" and played it at his weekend dances. The crowd response was so overwhelmingly positive that radio deejays started spinning it and an enterprising record distributor bootlegged it, selling 80,000 copies in ten days. By May of 1966 "Hanky Panky" was the number one record in Pittsburgh and Tommy James was a sensation.
