I, too, love this thread. 
Though it wasn't "The Four Seasons" yet in the "Not bad. Come back when you're black!" quote... they were still going by "The Four Lovers" at that point.
Mary: "With friends like that, maybe you should have changed your name to Sinatra."
Frankie: "I'm gonna be bigger than Sinatra."
Mary: ".. Only if you stand on a chair."
Tommy: "Marriage is not love. Marriage is you takin' a shave while your wife sits on the can and clips her toenails."
Bob Crewe: "It's a MET-A-PHOR, Miss Congeniality!"

Does J. Robert Spencer really go by Bobby? I could have sworn I overheard him introduce himself as John to someone at the stage door.

His website address is bobbyspencer.com and he's said on a couple different interviews that his name is Robert Spencer but he changed it because there already WAS a Robert Spencer... at least I think I'm getting that right...

Citrustwist, yes, it's Bobby. I just never felt comfortable calling him that because I didn't know him that well. I can do it now though. It just always seemed the same as calling a teacher by their first name, which I also seem incapable of doing. lol
And dreamflyer, THANK YOU! I knew Crewe said something other than just "It's a metaphor." but I couldn't think what. I do remember the Miss Congeniality part now. lol. yay.
Any other good quotes?

Another of my favorite Nick quotes is actually one of the dialogue tracks on the cast recording.
"You sell a hundred million records, see how you handle it."

Hopefully we can get some more going today, I'm at school right now, and running out of ones I can remember. lol
Anybody else remember more quotes?
And yes, it was in the show, but he was kind of quiet when he said it. I can't remember where exactly.

the nick massi quote is actually kinda changed in the show. on the cd he says, "you come back, empty your pockets, there'd be 15-20 cocktail napkins with phone numbers on it." instead he talks about how he sent his kids to live with his uncle and had them believe the HE in fact was their uncle, not their father. so sad.
how about the part when tommy is telling frankie about the two types of women? I forget it all exactly, except the part, "then they bust your balls..."

"Listen, Miss Congeniality! It's a METAPHOR. This is an anthem for every guy that's ever been wrapped around some girls little finger!
Well, isn't it?"
Brokenlizard, that's a great idea! I would love to help out any way I can! I'll PM you later.

I love New Philosophy Girl because she made me a JB Crazy! I'll be going back to JB for the 7th time on Friday and then again with NPG on the 15th! HOLLA!
As you can see, Daniel's neighborhood quote is my sig. Love it!
Bobby and Daniel b/f "my boyfriend's back"-- "this is the great American wet dream. you know what she's saying? *whispers* i want you inside me." "you really need help."
"meet Bob Crewe. he's got the best ears in the business." "all my body parts are outstanding, young man!"
"you shoot someone, you gotta shoot the witnesses, too. this is a basic rule."
I gotta think of more.

Another good part is in the car after the Angels perform:
Tommy (to Nick): "That's it, next time you ride with the genius."
Nick: "Isn't that Frankie's right to decide?"
Dumb Angel Girl: "And Bobby's too, right? I mean, the two of 'em, they're always together, like a couple of Chinese twins."
Tommy: "Try not to say anything for the rest of the day, alright sweetheart?"
This is my new favorite thread.

"maybe you can get a song out of this. oh me, oh me, oh my-oh, did some time in the old Ohio!"
"make it out to love muffin."
"friends like that, you should change your name to Sinatra" "i'm gonna be bigger than Sinatra!" "only if you stand on a chair"
"this is Mary Delgado. type two!" *wink*
"you got a nickel?" "yeah" "call your mother. you're gonna be home late!"
"hey Frank, what do ya dig most?" "man, like i dunno. i just gooooooo APE!"
"they just got rid of some yutz who did monkey songs or some s**t."
I'm running through the show in my head trying to think of more quotes.

"type one: they play hard-to-get then they bust your balls. type two: they jump right in bed with you then later on they bust your balls."
I know I have to bleep it out alot but this is one of my favorite parts! --
"this is Bloomfield. i told you Fairfield!" "why would i say Bloomfield if it was Fairfield?!" "i dunno Tommy, maybe your brain is f***ed up! a**hole!" "i'm not an a**hole! you're an a**hole!" "you piece of mutha f***ing s**t a**hole!" *BANG* "who's the a**hole now?!"
"*list of boring cities*...the places you fly over on your way to Los Angeles. the low point was this place in Nevada. we're playing to three Mexicans and a guy with no nose..."
"some people are not thrilled to live in a place where you gotta drive over a turnpike, past a landfill, through a dump, just to root for a team that's from New York anyway."
"and where it counts, i'm still a hero. they even named me Belville man of the year 2002!"
"he(Nick Massi) passed on Christmas Day, 2000. i mean, for a Catholic, is that style or what."
"and if you're ever in Vegas, walk into any casino--my hand to God--you'll be outta there in about 12 seconds."
"kid's a singer?" "a good singer. and gettin' better!" "then he oughtta be great by the time YOU get out! six months."
"and as i'm getting out, Nick's going in. not to be confused with my brother Nick De Vito who's not going anywhere."
"so i finally got out of Rahway Academy of the Arts..."
I think I need serious help lol! *thinking of more quotes*
funny story. I have forensic psych at 1 and my professor really wants to see JB. I wear a JB t-shirt almost everyday(different ones, of course) and he's always like "Caroline, why are you teasing me!" so the other day he asked me "Caroline, do you have a will?" i said no. and he says "should anything ever happen to you(i thought "you want my t-shirt?!")--not that i want harm to come to you--but you should just type out something leaving me all your Jersey Boys stuff and any tickets you have to see the show in the future. just thought i'd share lol.

"and if you're ever in Vegas, walk into any casino--my hand to God--you'll be outta there in about 12 seconds."
Wasn't it:
"And if you're ever in Vegas, walk into any casino, say the name Tommy Devito-my hand to God-you'll be outta there in about 12 seconds."? lol
And BroadwayBetty, you're my new hero.
I wish I lived anywhere even close to NYC (I live in Freeport, IL. *SOBS*) Jersey Boys was the reason we took the trip to NYC though. I'm kind of depending on this show to come to Chicago when it starts touring. More quotes, please!
One last thing, is anybody else in for what I said earlier? That book for the cast?

Bunch more for Broken Lizard:
"I'm gonna be bigger than Sinatra" "Only if you're standing on a chair" ..... (in the Best accent -->"Why ya gotta say that kinda stuff?" JLY =)
"That's an unusual fragrance you're wearing, What's it called?" "Soap"
"I taught him everything he knows. But not everything *I* know." "You schooled him very well" "Yuo're a nice girl Lorraine, you've been around, if you want, come check out the graduate course" (or something like that) -CH
"The little kid who wasn't good enough, never was good enough, is bailing you out, so is THAT GOOD ENOUGH?" - DR
"TEN YEARS!" JRS
"Two kinds of women. Type A - Jump right into bed, and later on, they bust your balls. Type B - play hard to get, then later on, they bust your balls." "That's Mary Delgado - Type A"
"THERE"S A DEAD DAGO IN IT!!!" (when the guys set up the fake murder in the car...)
He's not saying "wewantjojo" or soemthing ... he's singing "who wears short shorts" in the typical fast talking illegible joe pesci fashion... he stands there and breaks into a little dance and says "who wears short shorts you wear short shorts she wears short shorts" etc etc. c'mon people
"He may be a moron, but he's not stupid" (PGregus)
when the ape guy (Steve) joins the group "Heeeey"
Steve has another quick character that brings Crewe a drink when they're talking about getting the money together for the demo session - crewe says he's tapped out - and he looks behind him at his 'butler boy toy' and steve strikes a "i didn't do nothin' i'm innocent' pose, it is hysterical.
****I saw it for a 5th time on Sat afternoon. Then went to WICKED Sat night. I've been to Spamalot, and didn't feel this way but when I went to WICKED, I felt like I was cheating on Jersey Boys. hehehe. BRoken Lizard - glad you got to see it and meet the guys, aren't they great. JLY's my favorite by far. Feel like I've known him my whole life.

They are sooo incredibly sweet. I love that JLY hasn't changed since he became huge. (Well, since the show became huge anyway). He's really good at putting people at ease. I was so nervous when I met him, but then we ended up talking for a half hour. (The first night).
They're all very sweet though. It's an amazing cast. It truly is
