Featuring the Jersey Boys Second National Tour Cast: Jarrod Spector (Frankie Valli), Jeremy Kushnier (Tommy DeVito), Drew Gehling (Bob Gaudio), Michael Ingersoll (Nick Massi)
Oh, my god. These guys are great. I saw them this month and I loved the show. Also, afterwards they had this contest. Whoever put in the highest bid to help people with Aids, Breast Cancer, etc. got to meet the cast, take a picture, and get a kiss on the cheek with a hug from all of them. And my mom got the highest bid, so we got to meet them. It was awesome. They are very nice and charming as well.
they both honor the great frankie vallee and that makes them both wonderful. frankie is really the star here. their voices are merely instruments for him.
Yay! As I was watching this last night I kept shouting, "OMG there's Jarrod and Drew and Jeremy and Michael.. and there's Craig.. and Lyndsey.. and Mike.. and Steven.." I just kept spotting them. I'm SO happy for them all! Great job guys!!!
Don't get me wrong, I don't mean any disrespect to Jarrod Spector, he is terrific but Chris Kale Jones the main guy in the nat. tour is a wonderful Frankie Valli too. I've seen him four times, and he has never failed to move me to tears with CTMEOOY, MEAY, and Fallen Angel. He is a brilliant actor and singer. And frankly, I think he is gorgeous. You can't judge him just on the T.V. appearances.
will see him for 3rd time on 3/4. It will be my 6th show. I definitely find him to be the best Frankie. His voice just carries the show. But I thought the SF/Chicago group was really the pinnacle of perfection. Different, but as good as Bway cast
@beermike100 I'd probably bet a decent amount considering they're Broadway singers with beautiful voices who sing every single night and make a fraction of what pop stars do. This is easy for them.
Amazing performance. I loved every second of it. Just curious, does any one know if they had a performance on Sunday or what their schedule was leading up to their performance? Any information is greatly appreciated. THANKS.
wow it's funny i've actually never heard of the jersey boys before.. but WAHHH after that emmy show that had... HOLY CRAP!! i LOVEEEEEE them now!! haha i don't know why.. but when they were performing "walk like a man" i thought the lead singer?? was HOTTTT hahahah XD
I´m not american but I would like to know what´s this Jersey Boys all about, for instance the names, when Jarrod Spector is "Frankie Valli" etc. Great voice. Thanks!
Years later, this is still the worst piece of programming on TV: having the Sopranos background shown while this group was singing. Totally nonsensical and ruins the video. Other than that, Jersey Boys is an awesome show.

Saw these same guys in Chicago absolutely wonderful.
My daughter was lucky enough to see twice
Jarrod Spector could MELT STEEL, just watch him sing Can't Take My Eyes off You.
Incomporable
oh god jarrod (frankie). please don't stop singing :)
Jarrod Spector is right on with his vocals. WOW! Excellent! Thanks for posting!
I saw it on Broadway April 18th. My 5th time. Great music! I remember bowling at the Four Seasons alley when I was a kid in Jersey in the early 60's.
they both honor the great frankie vallee and that makes them both wonderful. frankie is really the star here. their voices are merely instruments for him.
Saw the LaSalle Theatre production in Chicago on December 1st. BEST play I've ever seen...
To the tree on the left! Way to go Drew! You're soo handsome!
we saw this show in Finland too and I was like "Oh my god, this song is from that Robin Williams-movie, I´ve searched that song for ages!"
Luv them!
We got to work with Jarrod and Michael Ingersoll this summer. They were SO nice and it was really fun!
the best chicago jersey boys ever
I really love JLY, but I have to admit, Jarrod Spector is simply awesome. What a voice!! Wolfsky9, 64 y/o today!!

I love you Baby!
Awesome!
I live in a podunk area and will probably never see this but I sure love being able to check out these vids!
Lived it!
I've seen it in NYC twice. LOVE IT!
No, that's them singing.
You can see them (well, 3/4 of them) perform live in Chicago now. It's an amazing show!!
Thanks so much! :D

i saw him in Orlando, he was great!

Jarrod Spector is an amazing performer, one of my favorites Frankie's, and I've seen them all. Langorio was also pretty good.
Went to. See jarrod on broadway this guys amazing!
Cory Grant is also amazing as Frankie now in Chicago.
Everyone should see it!!!
Excellent!

Jarrod is the best Frankie ever!!!!!!
Jarrod Spector has always been my favourite Frankie...just a personal choice.
SO AWESOME! X-D *loveit*
saw this in vegas on sunday!
So Sorry for you that you've missed the SF cast because they are AMAZING.

Amazing performance. I loved every second of it. Just curious, does any one know if they had a performance on Sunday or what their schedule was leading up to their performance? Any information is greatly appreciated. THANKS.
Saw it in Vegas on Saturday. Rick Faugno is a BEST Frankie.
Yeah, and the whole "Oh what A Night" thing.
wow it's funny i've actually never heard of the jersey boys before.. but WAHHH after that emmy show that had... HOLY CRAP!! i LOVEEEEEE them now!! haha i don't know why.. but when they were performing "walk like a man" i thought the lead singer?? was HOTTTT hahahah XD
my favorite frankie is joseph leo bwarie!
Tommy: "I don' like it...'Walk Like a 'Man'?? As apposed to WHAT-a girl?!"
XD Great show: and the first song just made me think back to that line(:
yep...want to go to this soooo bad
pika23 At i is so good
I´m not american but I would like to know what´s this Jersey Boys all about, for instance the names, when Jarrod Spector is "Frankie Valli" etc. Great voice.
Thanks!
@keithmarrmusic No kidding... and not bad as eye candy either...
How much was the highest bid may I ask?
At the end of the show, they had bids for a framed sheet music signed by Frankie himself. It went for $500!!
John Loyd Young and Christian Hoff both won Tony Awards, and won best the musical Tony, who the hell are these guys????
@MrFrankygoestoboston: I agree. I can't understand why he's only in the 2nd billing - he's better than Spector, Young, and Bwarie
They are different, but CKJ is just as good.
it's a shame you can't find music like this anymore.. all of it's recycled auto-tune crap.
christopher kale jones from the 1st national tour was better in my opinion
whats the first song?
they are actually singing this?? O_O
@kneal8 Don't get it either.
john michael dias is the best Frankie.
@sboogie55 i thought Frankie was the best Frankie
are they lip-synching the four seasons?
These are second rate Jersey Boys, you havent seen anything until you go see John Lloyd Young, Christian Hoff, Daniel Reichard and J. Robert Spencer
What artistic purpose did the Sopranos serve? I think is detracted from the performance.
They're good....too bad they're lip-syncing....
How much you wanna bet this was lip synced....
Years later, this is still the worst piece of programming on TV: having the Sopranos background shown while this group was singing. Totally nonsensical and ruins the video. Other than that, Jersey Boys is an awesome show.
i dont like the guy who plays frankie..i like the one from the jersey boys london better!
