FRANKIE VALLI: STILL VERY MUCH IN SEASON AT HARRAH'S LAUGHLIN

We're pretty sure that when a group of New Jersey teenagers decided to get together to form a rock and roll group in the late ‘50s, they weren't thinking a Tony-award-winning Broadway musical would come along in 2007 to tell their story.
They were probably thinking “chicks love singers” and little else. They most certainly weren't thinking 2007.

Nonetheless, a few years after that initial group evolved and when Frankie Castelluccio (later Vally and then Valli) and Bob Gaudio hooked up, the path was paved for a ride that would eventually lead to fame, fortune, good times, bad times, a 50 year career-and the musical “The Jersey Boys.”
