Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Benedum Center was originally built in 1928 as the Stanley Theatre, a movie palace that hosted Sinatra and Elvis before becoming this concert's home.
Doo-wop emerged from Black and Italian American street corners in the 1940s-50s, making this 1999 reunion a last major gathering of original architects before the genre became museum piece.
