Sunday, November 12th is the next Oldies Spectacular at Proctors Theatre featuring 7 great acts including  The Happenings, The Tokens, The Toys, and the vocal stylings of The Bronx Wanderers!

For 18 consecutive years, The Bronx Wanderers, comprising a father, his two sons, and two of their high school friends, have been astonishing audiences worldwide with their high-energy performances. Since 2016, they have held a residency in Las Vegas and are currently headlining at the South Point Hotel & Casino. The show centers around Vinny, the father's, illustrious music career in the record industry, featuring songs from the stars he has had the privilege to record and produce during his extensive career, including icons like Dion, Tony Orlando, The Jersey Boys, and Billy Joel, to name just a few.

Together, Vinny and his children infuse new vitality into timeless classics while providing an abundance of stories and laughter you'd expect from a somewhat dysfunctional yet exceptionally talented musical family. Their show ranks among the top five out of 211 shows in Las Vegas, having clinched the Best of Las Vegas Awards an impressive 12 times. Furthermore, they have recently been honored with an induction into the East Coast Music Hall of Fame.
