Catch the story of four working class guys in their twenties, each at odds with love and the world, as they achieve their dream of becoming “The Plaids”.  Forty years after being wiped out in an auto accident on their way to their first big gig at the Hilton lobby bar (by a bus full of Catholic school girls on their way to see a Beatles concert!), the heavens allow them one night to return to Earth for the barbershop quartet review they never got to give.  Don’t miss this night!
