Tickets are selling fast for the \u201cFabulous Flashbacks\u201d dance scheduled for this Saturday to benefit the Central Pennsylvania Humane Society. The event takes place at the Bavarian Hall in Altoona beginning at 8 p.m.
\n\u201cWe\u2019re expecting a great turnout,\u201d said CPHS Executive Director Dave Hopkins. \u201cThe group has a loyal following and they\u2019re excited about this show. There are only a few days left for folks to pick up tickets\u2026the last time we hosted this group we sold out the show.\u201d
\nTickets are $8 and are available at CPHS offices (1837 E. Pleasant Valley Blvd.), Giant Eagle market (Plank Rd.) all Thompson Pharmacy locations, Chris\u2019 Hallmark (Pleasant Valley Blvd.), The Dream restaurant (Hollidaysburg), Community Furniture (Lakemont) and Tractor Supply (Duncansville).
\nThe Flashbacks have been together for more than 15 years.
\nThey are: John Bowser, drums & vocals; Kenneth Merritts, guitar & vocals, Kathy Tornatore, lead vocals; David Tornatore, bass guitar & vocals, Edd Kissel, keyboard and Donald Trullender, sax, guitar & vocals.
\n\u201c\u2018The Flashbacks\u2019 are the essence of true rock n\u2019 roll,\u201d said Hopkins.
\n\u201cThey are the region\u2019s original oldies group and their arrangements of classic oldies rock is amazing. It\u2019s pure nostalgia and never fails to get folks in the dancing mood. And after this brutally long and cold winter we\u2019ll be offering a great relief from \u2018cabin fever\u2019 with this dance.\u201d
\nIn addition to the Flashbacks, the event will feature raffle items and a 50\/50 drawing.
\nOrganizers say no tickets will be sold at the door and the minimum age to attend is 21.
