I was fortunate to meet Johnny Maestro once at a back stage party post show. I had attended a Doo Wop concert and being a big fan of Doo Wop, I purchased the back stage pass along with the regular ticket. He was a very likable man. Johnny succumbed to cancer not too many years ago. His voice will be missed at the shows, but will live on forever on his records and CD's. Johnny has a long history of being in the music business starting out with a few no-name groups and then hitting it big with the Brooklyn Bridge, before forming the Crests. He has had so many hits that he could do a show by himself.
