The crowd inside the BergenPAC auditorium in Englewood, NJ this Wednesday, June 12, 2024 evening is all set to dig the music of the 1960s and early '70s with the stars of the 2024 Happy Together Tour - The Turtles, Jay and the Americans, The Association, The Vogues, Badfinger's Joey Molland, and The Cowsills.

Inside the BergenPAC auditorium, concertgoers cheer as the Happy Together Band - Kenny Aaronson on bass, Chris Camilleri on drums, Manny Focarazzo on keyboards, and musical director Godfrey Townsend on guitar - take the stage for tonight's performance.

Lights shine on the audience as the pre-recorded voice of DJ Shadow Stevens introduces The Cowsills, and siblings Susan, Paul, and Bob Cowsill take the stage. The Cowsills open the show with a bouncy rendition of their catchy '67 hit, "The Rain, The Park, and Other Things" (aka "The Flower Girl").

Rich vocal harmonies fill the air as the siblings perform with energy to avid cheers and applause.

Paul exclaims, "This goes out to everybody in the balcony!" as the trio soars into their 1967 hit, "We Can Fly." Music lovers clap along to Bob's lead vocal which is supported by Susan and Paul's harmonies.

Bob recalls, "Susan picked this song for us when she was eight years old," as the trio segues into a lively version of their 1968 hit, "Indian Lake." Then, red, white, and blue lights flash as The Cowsills sing and play the TV theme song they recorded back in 1969 - the theme from Love, American Style.

Concertgoers cheer, and as images of '60s hair styles appear on the screen behind them, The Cowsills end their set with a high-energy rendition of their 1969 smash, "Hair," which has music lovers happily standing and applauding. . . .
