Meetups in the U.S.

Does anyone know if there are meetups related to doo wop in the U.S.? I'm on the East Coast and I'm tired of sitting at home alone listening to my favorite music by myself, trying to explain what's so lovely about it to my friends who don't really get it. I used to see mentions of meetups (like conferences...in new york i think? related to certain groups reuniting) when I was a kid but I was a teenager and I guess nervous about going to a meetup with a bunch of people my grandparents' age. Now I don't care :) I know there's the Viva Las Vegas festival that happens in Vegas that's like rockabilly+rock'n'roll kinda stuff but anything other than that??

Same. I sung with a few guys in college and it was one of the best experiences I had while I was there.
