The Jersey Boys in Chicago

FAVORITE BROADWAY MUSICAL: JERSEY BOYS
I love all Broadway musicals! My first was "Hair" many. many, many years ago at the iconic Chicago Theatre. It was followed thereafter by Jesus Christ Superstar, O Calcutta (whoa, amazing complete nakedness!), A Chorus Line, Grease, Hello Dolly, Phantom of the Opera, Cats, Les Miserables, Sound of Music, Beauty and the Beast, Aida, and a few more.  What's popular right now, right here in Windy City Chicago is JERSEY BOYS: The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons. Although not of my generation (I rock n roll with Rolling Stones), the songs are all nostalgic 50s to 60s. The Connie Francis song "Frankie" playing on the car's CD is not from The Jersey Boys but kind of appropriate. I wonder if he's the same Frankie (Valli), since they're from the same era?

  1. When I was in Vegas in June 2012 I saw JERSEY BOYS ad in one of the billboards. Not sure what casino-hotel it is being played.

  2. In case you're wondering about my video I had to remove Connie Francis' song (copyrighted).

  3. How can I forget THE KING AND I, MISS SAIGON (impressive with the huge helicopter on the stage) and FOOTLOOSE?
