Swing on by

Slip back in time today with The Rat Pack Summit Review Meets the Legendary Drifters. A mouthful, we know.

Tickets are $15, and specialty classic cocktails will be available for $5. Doors open at 8 p.m. Friday, June 17, at Excalibur & Vision Nightclub, 632 N. Dearborn St., Chicago, (312) 266-1944, excaliburchicago.com or visionnightclub.com.

You don't need tickets to Saturday's New Kids on the Block/Backstreet Boys concert at the United Center to share in the boy band fun.

Lake St., Addison, (630) 628-5800 or nova-lounge.com.
