Oh What a Night! (damn, there goes my New Years Resolution...oh well -- there's always next year).

When I found out that the JERSEY BOYS (John Lloyd Young, J. Robert Spencer, Christian Hoff, Daniel Reichard) were going to appear on Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve I was very excited. And then bummed. That's because for the last 19 long years Buffalo's First Night Celebration has been cutting in the ABC national feed to Toronto, and replacing it with downtown Buffalo's New Year's coverage (which always contains a healthy reporting of holiday stabbings and shootings interspersed with the festivities) so I haven't been able to watch the show since Dick Clark had sideburns!

Luckily my fabulous husband called our cable supplier and got us hooked up to channel 155 KOMO, the ABC feed in Seattle! So we programmed the old PVR for 1:00 AM and hoped for the best!

It worked like a charm! This morning I was able to watch the complete ABC telecast and saw the JERSEY BOYS totally rock Times Square with "Beggin'", "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and of course, "December 1963 (Oh, What a Night)". They were totally awesome, with John Lloyd Young was in especially fine voice for "Can't Take My Eyes Off You".

Hey JERSEY BOYS, Toronto loves you!
