Feedback
- We hosted our first of many Sock Hop at our '50s Diner and Retro Politan was a great fit to this venue. RP learned a few songs for us to fit the '50s Sock Hop swing dance them which was very cool! They even sang some of their own '50s style songs which sounded great as well!
On top of that, they all have great personalities for on and off the stage.
We would love to have RP back for another Sock Hop as soon as we get one planned!
