thanks for a fun interview..not to put down the other bob crewes, but john altieri, i think, is the most convincing crewe. with him, i don't get any feeling of a straight guy acting gay... he knows comedy, and knows how to punch the punch lines.

I had to think long and hard about taking my 10 year old daughter to see JB. She was already familiar with the language from my non-stop playing of the JB CD. I also took the opportunity to talk to her about successful people behaving badly. Six months later, she hasn't picked up the swearing nor petty crime nor JB obsession of mine.

John's the only Bob Crewe that I've had the pleasure of seeing in person. He cracks me up everytime I saw him in the show. I was at the show where his gun got stuck in his pocket. I LOVE his Bob Crewe and Donny! Going shopping Jersey style is one of my most favorite scenes in the show!

Who can’t like the Jersey Boys performance, but the problem is how to get access especially when tickets are not easy to be found. Lately, I recommended a site where to purchase or make ticket comparison before buying and I found it interesting. You may want to have a look, it’s Ticketwood.com.
