The Oldie Moldie All-Stars is a Saint Mary’s University music group that has been around for 32 years. Senior Bryan Atchison is the director of the group this year. Atchison is in charge of picking the members and the music and setting up the practices. There are 13 members in the group this year, and they are all members of the SMU Phi Mu Alpha fraternity.

The Oldie Moldie All-Stars had their first off-campus performance at Signatures last February. The show sold out and was a huge success, so Signatures asked the Oldie’s to do another show. The show is a formal shirt-and-tie event that costs $30 and includes a three-course meal. “The show will sell out, so anyone planning on going should put their reservations in soon,” Atchison said.

“This is the best group of Oldies yet,” Atchison said. “We work so well together, and the group is so fun. We can really get down. The show is going to be great. I truly can’t wait.” The show will have the Oldies playing two sets, and there will be a ‘60s Motown-heavy set this year.

“The show is going to be so much fun; dinner/dance shows always are,” Atchison said. “And if you wanted to take someone on a date this would be the perfect opportunity.”

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with the first set at 6 p.m. Then dinner will be served and the show will end with the second set.
