Chaperones Duke It Out
Two doo-wop groups who have billed themselves as The Chaperones are going to court over who can use the name.
To settle the issue, original member Anthony Ferrari filed a lawsuit in Brooklyn federal court against two former members, Las Vegas musicians Thomas Ronca and Nicholas Salvato.
The three Long Island natives formed the original group in the 1950s and scored hits such as “Cruise to the Moon” before disbanding, according to Ferrari’s suit.
