Grew up listening to my older cousin's Four Seasons lps.
Havent seen the musical, but recently bought a compilation and the music still sounds great.
'Bye, Bye Baby, baby goodbye..'
Timeless stuff. They were part of that pre-Beatles era American pop
I love.

Jersey Boys show in London here is great, and I think they are gonna be touring the country this year. ><

Clint has a good track record as a director. The movie should be pretty good.

"Lyin' awake in a cold, cold sweat. Am I overdrawn, am I going in debt?
It gets worse, the older that you get. No escape from the state of confusion I'm in.

I've always liked this song the most from that talented group-

Considering taking my 83-year-old mother to see this. She don't get around much anymore.

Very sweet.

I saw the play in Vegas with a friend a couple years ago, it was great.
I have tickets to see it with my wife in October.
The movie previews look good, but my wife is afraid to see the movie thinking it will ruin the play for her. I told her if the movie is done well, it won't make a difference.

If it's as good as the play then "Old Man River" (Eastwood) has another hit on his resume. That "Old Man River" just keeps rollin along! Kind of like some other fellas we know! Clint just turned 84 on May 31.

You can't argue the music! I will pass on the movie. After the Can vs. Afleck battle over Argo the term "based on" has come to mean other than the names I have free raine to warp a story to fit the hollywood formula. I have no faith I will learn about the man so I am stearing clear of movies with this disclaimer.

Funny though, I noticed the movie commercials say it is "Based on" the musical which is even more confusing?

Jersey Boys is probably the most consistently popular show in the West End of London for a few years now.

Not very often you get discounted tix like most other shows.

Similar to Broadway NY I guess.

Going to try to see it for Christopher Walken's role; I heard he dances in the movie.

I heard he dances in the movie.....maybe 'cause of Captain Koon's gold watch

Oh, what a night...always loved that song.

.....Walk Like A Man .....
