November 17, 2005 was the first time I heard the JB OBCR . . . although I didn’t realize that at the time. I was at Tower Records at Lincoln Center for the JB CD cast signing. I got there about an hour and a half early, and no one was there. I thought I had the wrong date, but a clerk there assured me people would eventually show up. I bought the CD so I could have it signed and then after reading the song list, I realized that the music playing over the store’s sound system was THE JB cast recording. It was played non-stop..and I kept hearing songs that I knew…but didn’t know they were Four Seasons’ songs (I’m just a little younger than they are!) It was a wonderful day. I met the cast and Bob Gaudio & won tickets to see the show & was invited backstage by the cast. I also got a wonderful picture with “the boys” at the very beginning of their life-changing journey! Check out my purse at the 5th year anniversary weekend, lol!

I saw JB more than once at La Jolla with my theater buddy. After the second time we saw it, she said if it went to Broadway, we were going, and we did. We were at the August Wilson in November 2005. After a wonderful Saturday evening show, how could there be a better way to unwind than listening to the JB OBCR in our hotel room!! And I believe we listened to it more than once before we finally went to sleep. After all, we had to get some rest so we’d be ready for the Sunday matinee.
