They’re all there to see Mari Wilson, who’s dippity-dooing through her set of revived early ’60s soul/pop, right down to her elbow-length white gloves, beehive hairdo and a band sporting matching black turtlenecks and white sport coats. It’s a blast from the past and, for the kids at least, it’s still a blast.
