A blast from the past in the form of the Jukebox Oldies Band wound up the week-long Brown Bag Concert Series on the Historic Courthouse Square in downtown Valdosta, Georgia.
This band is a hoot!
Appropriately kicking off their set with “This Magic Moment” from the Drifters, the six guys in blue jeans and white polo shirts proceeded to provide Magic Moments for every taste as they offered hits from the fifties and sixties and beyond. Their good old “boy group” harmonies took the Old Lady back to her childhood listening to WQXI-AM “Quixie in Dixie” in Atlanta when Atlanta was still just a town. And the downtown Valdosta crowd loved’em.
The guys are no spring chickens… well, neither is the Old Lady!… two of them are Professors of Economics at Valdosta State University (VSU), one has been a Lowndes County Commissioner as well as VSU Dean of Students, one is a longtime local lawyer, and the singer is “unemployed and on relief.”

For some reason, I had missed this very flattering write up. I think it pretty much speaks to our group, the fun we have and the music that we love. BTW, I am the unemployed, on relief, singer.
