Pop Legend Frankie Valli, 90, Gets COVID Again, Cancels Shows But Vows to Return

Share

Frankie Valli won’t let COVID get in his way.

The 90 year old legend announced today that he has COVID, and had to cancel a couple of shows.

But Frankie says he’ll be back on the road in late September for tour dates that will take him through next spring — at least!

Why is Frankie still doing gigs? Because he loves it. And the audiences love him. The Broadway musical, “Jersey Boys,” extended his career by 25 years.

Also, current pop group Maneskin reworked his hit, “Beggin’,” and got a top 10 hit out of it.

The songs of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, like most classic rock, pop, and R&B, stand the test of time!

Here’s to a speedy recovery, and Frankie getting the best care. He’s a national treasure.
