Malt Shop Memories 50’s Variety Show
Those were the days! School was out and on a hot August night, everyone headed for the local malt shop to play the latest tunes on the jukebox, mingle with friends and dance in the aisles. Malt shops and jukeboxes may be a thing of the past, but the music of the 50’s lingers on at The Ionia Theatre on Thursday, August 7, 2008, starting at 7:30 p.m. The Rydells, a local Ionia group, will start the evening with doo-wop music to be followed by Brian Grob performing his dynamite tribute act to Buddy Holly and the one and only Fred Wolfe wowing the crowd with Elvis songs as only he can perform them. The doors will be open an hour prior to the show. There is no reserved seating. Tickets are $10.00 and are available locally at The Ionia Theatre, Kitty's Cafe, Steele Street Coffee and SoZo Coffee on M-66 or by contacting Linda Ciangi at (616) 527-4945.
