The Memorial Day Dance with Donny and the Walkers at Angel City debuted new music. Donny debuted Boot Scootin’ Boogie and Suavecito. Sunny debuted Unchained Melody. It was a wonderful warm night with great music and friends, like a private party.

The band played thirty-two dance hits and played well past eleven o’clock. For one song, Lisa had everybody in the house dancing. It’s always a good time rockin’ with Donny and the band.

It was a fun Saturday evening with friends in downtown Bellflower at the full but not crowded Angel City coffee shop. Just enough room for everyone to get their fill of dancing and interacting with Donny and the Walkers. Donny does not let you just sit and watch. In addition to the band’s hats, mustaches, and glasses for some tunes, there are stories and jokes, and the dancers are expected to sing along with some tunes. This is an interactive audience participation show!

The band played thirty-one favorites, and although it began a half hour late, they played for nearly an hour past the ending time. Everyone was pleasantly exhausted when they played their last dance.
