The Drifters at the Sandwich Opera House
Along with fellow inductees the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Bob Dylan and the Supremes, the Drifters were in the first class of Rock & Roll legends to be initiated into the Hall of Fame and the first African American group to be inducted. Their classic tune "Under The Boardwalk" is the most played R & B record of all time, but there's more to their repertoire than one or two hits -- you know them all by heart, "Up on the Roof", "Sweets for My Sweet", "Please Stay", "Some Kind of Wonderful", and so many more. Join the historic reunion at the intimate Sandwich Opera House in Downtown Sandwich, Illinois this Valentine's Day Weekend.
