Jersey Boys Records A Tune For Christmas Carols For A Cure CD

Well, I just got home from our alloted time slot to record our version of “O Holy Night.” Our musical director ROn Melrose arranged it via email as he’s away getting The Wiz at LaJolla Playhouse into shape. We lost our beloved Titus Burgess to that production, but at least we know Ron is returning in a few weeks. Titus is playing the Lion…

Most of the cast volunteered to do the recording. All the Broadway shows are invited to choose a song and come and record it. It’s always interesting to sing about Christmas when it’s 80 degrees outside. But there were 10 solos in our song, so almost everyone got to sing a line or two solo. It will be fun to hear the completed version near Christmas. And then, all of the proceeds from the sales of the Bway CD will again go to help men, women and children with AIDS.

Tomorrow, we have rehearsal too for a rendition of OH WHAT A NIGHT that we’ll perform at TImes Square,11:30AM, this Sunday the 10th for “Broadway on Broadway”..we’re #9 to perform. And, Matthew Scott will be performing the Bob Gaudio solo lead on it as Daniel Reichard is on vacation. Don’t look for the Jersey Girls to be wearing their skimpy brothel outfits..we will be more casual and clothed ..possibly in our Jersey Boys’ bowling shirts. Hope to see you all there..Jennifer

    Hi Jennifer,

    My name is Lori, I’m 25 from NJ. I’m in NY a lot. I actually saw Jersey Boys on June 3rd. I loved the show and you have amazing talent. It was excellent. Since then I couldn’t stop listening to the soundtrack! Also, congrats on the Tonys!

    My friend and I are actually going to try to get tickets on Sunday for the the show. We will also be at Broadway on Broadway. This will be our first time seeing that!

    I hope to see you Sunday :)

    Sincerely,

    Lori

    Hi Jennifer,
    I wrote on another posting of yours a few weeks ago but not sure if it got to you. That one was just to say hi & ask if I can send you a picture you took with our six year old son Peter on Wed evening 9/6/06 at the stage door. Also, do you have any date yet as to when the Christmas CD will be on sale? The web site is my husbands, so you may remember his face until I send you a picture of you & Peter. The above is my email address. Love the web site, keep up the great work in the show. Stacey Siringano
