The Buckinghams in Concert

I have been meaning to write a message and now I'm finally getting around to it. On behalf of Nick and I, I want to thank everyone who came out to see us on the Happy Together Tour making it even more successful than last years tour. We had a great lineup this year which included our good friends The Grass Roots, The Association, Mark Lindsay, and of course Mark and Howard, The Turtles. Of course we couldn't do it without a fabulous band behind us and a wonderful crew. To our tour producer Ron Hausfeld thank you. This fabulous year continues for The Buckinghams, so we look forward to seeing everyone at our upcoming dates. Thank you, Carl Giammarese Cross posted on Facebook here .

Jennifer Coffman, Minneapolis Arts Examiner, wrote a preview for The Happy Together Tour's 2011 visit to the Minnesota State Fair. "You can hear a lot of great music at the Minnesota State Fair, but only one concert this year will showcase many famous bands of the '60s and '70s together in one show. The Happy Together Tour makes its way to the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand on August 29 at 8:00 p.m. For the ticket price of $18, you can see The Turtles with Flo & Eddie, The Association, The Grass Roots, The Buckinghams, and former lead singer of Paul Revere & the Raiders, Mark Lindsay."

No, it's not Lady Gaga's roadies: It's Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan, aka Flo and Eddie, aka The Turtles. This year's tour began July 8th in Westbury, NY, and toured across Connecticut, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New Jersey, back to Pennsylvania, Florida, and Georgia. So, after three straight weeks of shows, the tour broke for a week's rest. That rest was short-lived for Carl Giammarese and Nick Fortuna because The Buckinghams traveled, with their full band, to Ocean City, NJ and then to Pensacola, FL for a private...

The First leg of The Happy Together Tour 25th anniversary just ended, and I must say it went by quickly. Nick and I are very proud to be a part of it, once again being reunited with The Turtles Mark and Howard, man those guys are funny! and Rob Grill of The Grass Roots. As you know the one and only Micky Dolenz and the talented Mark Lindsay also joined us on the tour. They are both good people and very talented entertainers, it was a pleasure to get to know them better. Every one of them brings something special to the show. I had the opportunity to sit back and watch the performance one night, and they are all so incredibly talented and entertaining. I want to mention our fantastic band, Godfrey Townsend, Steve Murphy, Manny Focarazzo and John Montagna, we are fortunate to have such gifted musicians playing with us, they add tremendous authenticity to the entire show. Kudos to our tour/production manager, Ron Hausfeld, who runs a tight ship and keeps the entire tour running smoothly. ...
