THE night of my 60th birthday in 2015 turned out to be a little bit special. I celebrated this milestone by going to see The Bay City Rollers play live at Barrowland in Glasgow. During the concert, I got the surprise of my life when I was inducted into the Barrowland Hall of Fame … becoming the first music journalist to receive such an accolade. On stage – before the 1500-capacity, tartan clad audience – singer Les McKeown presented me with a handsome trophy. Minutes later he was singing a song whose chorus went:
“Well we sang Shang-A-Lang/As we ran with the gang/Doin’ doo wop be dooby do ay.”
Josh Inmon, director of Springfield Little Theatre s production of Shout! The Mod Musical.
“Yeah, we opened last night to a great crowd,” said Inmon, who directs the production. “By the end, they were dancing in their seats, and everybody was having fun singing along” while staying socially distanced, of course!
Inmon described “Shout! The Mod Musical” as an off-Broadway show that debuted in 2006. “It s the story of five women who come of age in the 1960s and kind of discover themselves. And you see their journey going along. But the real star of the show is the music, the 60s music that, whether you you were alive in that era or not, everybody loves that music.”
