| | I definitely plan to see JERSEY BOYS, since I love a few of the Four Seasons' records, especially "Dawn (Go Away)" and "Walk Like a Man." Especially the first, which is intriguingly complex in its melodic construction:

The only Broadway show I have ever seen is HAIRSPRAY, but even though my step-grandson is starring in it, I would not recommend it musically--I find the songs very trite and uninspired. (Even though Ashley gives a wonderful performance, and even though almost everyone else seems to like the songs in it!)
If you don't know the song, do check out "Dawn (Go Away)" in the link above. I love how this song keeps throwing new musical material at you, when you think its inventiveness has been spent, and ties it all together into a unity.
