Boys II Men bring their smooth harmonies to MGM Grand at Foxwoods

The median age of the three members of Boys II Men is 31, which means they might more accurately be called Men II Getting-Older. Of course, by that logic, the Beach Boys should be called Ooooh, Those Crusty Codgers Are Groading-Up the Beach.

In any event, Boys II Men, with over 60 million records sold, are the most successful R&B group of all time. Their stellar a capella harmonies and velour-smooth balladry will probably always resonate with long-time fans, and they bring the magic Saturday to the MGM Grand Theater at Foxwoods.

The group's latest album, last fall's "Twenty," featured a baker's dozen new songs and rearrangements of faves such as "MotownPhilly" and "It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday." Expect a beautifully choreographed set of hits.
