Favorite moment: Abbey Road medley was, by far, the best part of the show. I Am the Walrus was unbelievable to hear live. They nailed it. @
Setlist: I Wanna Hold Your Hand, Saw Her Standing There, Don't Let Me Down, Get Back, I Am the Walrus, She Came in Through the Bathroom Window, Golden Slumbers, Carry That Weight, All You Need Is Love, Revolution. @
I had great expectations after reading reviews about this band and by looking at some video footage of them. They delivered. They seemed to be a little hurried in the show and this was indicative by the half-uniform changes they were doing, i.e.- wearing the same slacks from the mop top days with the tops to the Sgt. Pepper uniforms. But the music was great. They had a new sound guy and from where we sat, which was very close, "George's" guitar was a bit loud and "John's" vocals were barely audible. The quality of the music and vocals was very, very high, however. True professionals. "Paul" could pass for the real Sir Paul any day. Close your eyes and you think he's up there singing and his bass play was great, as well. These guys nailed everything from the solos to the mannerisms of the original Fab Four. The seating was a little cramped, but bearable. The food was very good. Free beverages were juice, tea and coffee. Other than that, sodas and adult beverages were ready for order. Mimosas were $12 and beers were $8 (Stella and Hoegaarden). Given the quality of the music, the resume of the band and the overall fun that you'll have if you love the Beatles, the price tag is more than fair and I'd do it again.
