- Could have been worse. You could have
- dreamt about me and an old and almost forgotten
- friend who used to live in an apartment with
- three other guys back in college. Those four
- guys were always partying, and thankfully
- I didn't live there so when I got tired of it
- all I could just go home.
-
- Anyway, one guy was a Frankie Valli
- freak, but no one else could relate but me
- and they never let him play any on the stereo.
- But usually he would outlast them, and after
- everyone else had passed out he'd get out the
- Jim Beam, pour us a couple of shots, and he'd
- put on Frankie Vallie and we'd jump up on the
- barstools in the apartment and start dancing
- and singing until we in turn finally passed
- out. Or moved on to The Four Tops.
-
- How's that for raising the hair on the
- back of your neck.
