Andrew Coffey @ Exit 50 Podcast has an interview with Jersey Boys’ cast member Michael Longoria. Please check it out and let us know what you think. Andrew also posted some pictures he took.
NOTE: The interview has some adult language. Might not be work safe or appropriate if kids are listening. It probably should also be noted that the same "disclaimer" is true for a couple of scenes included on the CAST CD.

Variety reports (15Nov05) that Jersey Boys box office gross sales was "[the] biggest winner with $667,407, rising $244,669 in the wake of strong reviews" from the previous week.

Jersey Boys has broken the house record at the August Wilson Theatre, formerly the Virginia Theatre (245 West 52nd Street). For the week ending November 20, the musical grossed $689,839.00–up $2,423.00 on the previous house record set by Little Shop of Horrors in December, 2003.

I just had to note out that the news from Engadget on the ‘Cingular and SBC merger plus recent purchase of A&T’ endeavor is going to be known as "AT&T: Your world. Delivered" is very funny to me.
There is just so much "lost" branding money over the last year into Cingular, SBC, and to some part AT&T that could make your head spin if you really cared.
