We saw it in the West End quite a few years ago and loved it.

Downside was a guy sitting immediately behind me knew every word to every song.
Unfortunately he didn't share Frankie Valli's velvet voice.

I said to my wife that I was going to say something in the interval but when the lights came up, this guy was massive .... so I just looked at him and said "having a good time mate" ;)

"Lovin' it" he said, so I left him to it.

"Lightweight" said the Mrs. :lolno:
Empty vessels .. and all that

We saw it in 2010 in Las Vegas ... awesome, it truly is a wonderful show and everybody who remembers the distinctive music of the Four Seasons should go and see it.
Keep smiling, it's good for your well being

We went up to The Smoke to see 'Sunny Afternoon' last night. A great evening but blow me, it was VERY LOUD. It is based on the story of The Kinks and includes most of their well-known hits. Great fun with everybody up and dancing at the end. My ears are still ringing.

(The trains from Winchester were fantastic, a touch over an hour each way, on time and only £15 each with the SWT promotion. Well done SWT)

we saw the jersey boys early this year, and loved it. the songs are so memorable we both were humming and singing to them all the way home in the car. in fact I would go and see it again tomorrow if I could.
