Bob Gaudio, chief hitmaker for The Four Seasons, joined the group when they were floundering without a name. Before he joined, he was a member of the Royal Teens and the co-writer of their hit song "Short Shorts". The band never released an album so this tour stop is represented by their compilation album Original Short Shorts and Others.
Note: The album was picked over other compilation albums for its cover and the date given is the year of the latest released track on the album.
