[S]everal former members of the doo-wop singing group Sha Na Na are reuniting this weekend for a special one-time-only performance.No mention of Donny York. (X yrs. w/o a thought directed at or near Sha Na Na, then w/in 36 hrs. we are twice confronted w/ their ghosts. What's the deal?)
“It feels so natural that I just have not had as much fun or felt in harmony with anybody since,” said Robert Leonard, a longtime Hofstra University linguistics professor who in 1969 helped form Sha Na Na. He spent two years with the band before being offered a fellowship to Columbia Graduate School that led to a career in education.
Leonard, who sang bass and can be seen in the Woodstock movie wearing the group’s signature gold lame jacket, is bringing together former members of the group for a performance Saturday at a celebration marking Hofstra’s 75th anniversary. Other performers on the bill include Public Enemy, Blue Oyster Cult [sic], Fountains of Wayne, Lisa Lisa, and hip-hop star Trey Songz.
