Saw the DVD last nite. Did a little research and it appears Frankie Valli 's dad was not only a barber but a display designer for Lionel.
Makes sense being they are from Newark NJ, also my hometown.

Interesting.
If you liked the movie you most likely will really like the concert/musical.
"Jersey Boys"
I saw it in December and it was great.
Gentlemen,
You guys are a little late to the show, in my era we saw Franky Valli & the 4 Seasons live and man they were great, everything you hear on the records/disc they did live on small stages, all over the east coast. Seriously talented group with an incredible lead singer. Pick up their Golden Vault of Hits, you will love it.
The Valli Barber Shop did sell Lionel trains right out of the Barber Shop, and his father who attended a lot of the 4 Season stage shows, especially in Pa, would have them in the trunk of his car for people to purchase. Man those were the days.

My folks were big Frankie Valli fans. They took me to a Four Seasons concert in the late 70's at the Syria Mosque in the Oakland section of Pittsburgh.
Good stuff.
The movie was good but listening to him live would bring tears to your eyes what a voice .
Very interesting....never knew any of that.
