A Jersey Boy in Memphis (and a few other things)

Bob Gaudio Loves Memphis

Songwriter Bob Gaudio is one of the Four Seasons, the band that the musical "Jersey Boys" was based on. He was in Memphis today to promote the show (which is going to be at the Orpheum from Jan. 27 - Feb. 14). He told me that he hadn't been to Memphis since he performed here on tour when he was 15. Gaudio did get to meet Elvis, though. They hung out for a while backstage in Vegas. "He was a glossy eight-by-ten," Gaudio told me. "He's the most beautiful man I've ever seen, and I'm straight."

In other news:

- The Whole Foods on Poplar is donating 5% of their profits from today to Project Greenfork. Project Greenfork is a Memphis non-profit that helps restaurants become environmentally sustainable.

- In other food news, it's application time for the 8th Annual Memphis Hot Wing Contest and Festival. Anyone with a few friends and seasoning mad skills can fill out the application to become an official cooking team. The festival is April 17th.

- Mayor Wharton and his wife, Ruby are seeking the nominations of exceptional women for the Ruby R. Wharton Award. If you know any women who have made great and unselfish contributions to the quality of life in Memphis, you can nominate them by contacting Allison Fouche’ at 576-6006 or by email.
