Why did Frankie Valli and Four Seasons tour get canceled?

Springtime got sprung this spring for Frankie Valli.You remember Frankie Valli, right? From back in the aulde days?Well, lest you don’t, here I trudge to remind you.He was on a farewell tour at 92.A Four Seasons bye-bye — a give my regards to Broadway and anyone else you might think of for a friendly ta-ta from a big name who’s seen it all, done it all, headlined it all.

He was now kissing sayonara to it all.Then, in May, he suddenly abruptly canceled the tour.Midway.

It was the whole remaining part of his Four Seasons farewell tour.Ask why since he’s a pro, loved the limelight and wouldn’t have signed on had he thought he couldn’t cut it.

But suddenly — no planning the situation — he had to walk away and you’re told: “It’s to focus on his health.” Didn’t smell right.He loved performing.

Loved the spotlight.Loved the attention.

The hasty explanation had a Biden’s bathroom aroma.Smartasses say he just doesn’t want to keep performing.Not so sure.

So I know that’s not it.The guy loved the limelight, but his current wife — who is his No.

4 wife — wants him to keep doing it.His managers had a meeting in June regarding the possibility of his lipsyncing.

They know fans may clue in to that shtick.They worry that the tour may end up looking like elder abuse on the stage.His team is sitting on pins, needles, even safety pins to determine if they’ll put him back on stage.For the beloved crooner, this all spells “treble.”What happened to those big-time, old-time, long ago leading men? The movie stars of aulde.

When cinema gents came off looking tall, gorgeous, tough.Rippled muscles in all the needed parts.
