HG, you beat me to it, I was just posting The Fab Four doing it.

The Fab Four is my absolute favorite Beatles cover band. They are awesome.

Several years ago, I saw them do Revolver in it's entirety. Even the backwards guitar. They did it dead on.

I have never seen The Fab Faux live, but have seen them on videos, on the Letterman show, etc. They are good, but in my opinion The Fab Four has it a little bit up on them.

BTW, I have seen the Fab Four probably in the neighborhood of 75 times.

The only Beatles tribute band I've ever seen was the original tribute band in the Broadway show Beatlemania.  I saw it twice, in 1977 and 1979.

They're a great Rutles tribute band too!

I guess that makes The Fab Four a tribute band of a tribute band!    ;D

Not really.  I think you're right about Revoluton #9


That's odd.  I thought kangaroos looked like this...

I've seen 'Rain' on broadway and I dont think they would shy away from any Beatles tune. They tackle some tough ones and nail them like 'Strawberry Fields' and 'I Am The Walrus'.

Most tribute bands Ive seen seen just make Ringo sing Yellow Submarine & With A Little Help From My Friends I would like them to perform Act Naturally last year for the first time ever I saw a tribute band play Act Naturally it was great to hear a Ringo tune they avoid playing.
