Buckinghams to Play Two Shows at the Riverside Casino Resort Show Lounge. Riverside, IA

7 and 10 p.m. Saturday (12/26) Riverside Casino & Golf Resort Show Lounge, 3184 Highway 22, Riverside, Free, (319) 648-1234, www.riversidecasinoandresort.com From the Iowa City Press-Citizen online site: Riverside Casino Show Lounge, Riverside 7 and 10 p.m. Saturday Chi-town quintet pounded the charts and Midwestern ballrooms in the late-sixties (I saw 'em at The Surf with the Cryan Shames), hitting No. 1 in 1967 with "Kind of a Drag." Other hits include "Don't You Care," "Hey Baby (They're Playing Our Song)," "Susan" and a vocal version of Cannonball Adderley's "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy." This re-formed edition, featuring two original members, has been on the road for some 25 years.
