Fabulous night out.. Great Band

[@drifterDave1952]

Yeah great band!! with some good lead vocal at times, saw them 4 times in 2018 starting with the Concorde Club in Eastleigh and finishing up with the New Theatre Royal at Portsmouth. Certainly improved from their first outing but just a glorified tribute band in the second half. Not what true Drifter Fans expect. Butch Leake is trying to put on a 70's reunion with original 70's Drifters and maybe Michael Williams from the last decent line-up also appearing. Do not get involved with the London Retro Festival or Jack O'Shea the promotor. He is a con-man sells tickets, cancells shows with no refund. Hope Butch can sort it for this year. Happy New Year to all true Drifters fans.

Great show, brilliant, class act as always, the music and the good name lives on

Tina should release Stand by me with the new group it would be a certain hit

[@michaellirette929]

Plus I have seen various line- ups and very much miss Jonney Moore but I never witnessed the numbers these guys have at their concerts, you should see it and they get people on their feet. The lead does a Jackie Wilson number, another guy is old soul and another yet does a fab Michael Jackson tribute. They have a section of this including a Temptation hit or two. The highlight for me was I who have nothing performed by one of the members. it nearly reduced me to tears, I believed every word, very strong vocals. We were as per, in the front row so heard every note.

I have no bad word to say about any of the line ups

[@michaellirette929]

Oh dear, she vanished lol

Who is the current lead singer in the Drifters line up?

[@tonysank]

WTF how come these guy be called the drifters just another long line of tribute bands .

[@drifterDave1952]

It is a shame that four black guys given the privaledge to perform under the name of the Drifters has become nothing more than a tribute band. The shows starts off so well then the second half deteriorates into a tribute of Michael Jackson, painful and various other artists. When you think of the quality of the Drifters back catologue it beggars belief. Let's hope they put it right as the lead singer has the makings of a good interpereter of Drifters songs. Mcphatters covers and others he could do justice too. Remember though, as Lionel Richie said just the other day, don't mess with the hits us fans want to hear them as they were and enjoy singing along.

You do not know what you are talking about, when they sing others songs they PAY TRIBUTE donkey, all bands do that to add variety, so did the late great Edwin Star
