The Bootleg Beatles
Paying Musical Homage to the Fab Four Direct from London. The Bootleg Beatles is arguably the greatest Beatles show in the world and have included Newcastle as part of their Australian tour, paying note-perfect musical homage to the “Fab Four” at the Civic Theatre on Wednesday, 22 November, for another nostalgic trip through memory lane and the swinging sixties. Considered the world’s first and finest tribute band and described as ‘mind-bogglingly authentic’ by The Mail on Sunday, ‘entirely convincing’ by The Times and ‘less a tribute more a reincarnation’ by The Daily Telegraph, the Bootleg Beatles are the only Beatles band endorsed by Sir George Martin and their authenticity coupled with their 24
musical credibility has seen them perform at Wembley Stadium, the Royal Albert Hall and for the Queen at Buckingham Palace. With precise attention to detail, the band spectacularly recreates the look and sound of the Fab Four through each iconic phase of their career and with uncanny accuracy. From Love Me Do to Let It Be, from the Cavern to the Apple rooftop, from black and white to psychedelic technicolour, this premier Beatle band returns to take you on a whistle-stop journey through the most vibrant revolutionary and divisive decade of all, the Swinging Sixties. It’s all here…the iconic mop tops, Chelsea boots, Sargeant Pepper tunics, and Chesterfield suits. Each tiny vocal inflection and each witty Beatle quip, all meticulously studied on this Magical Mystery trip. With a little help from their orchestral ensemble and featuring a special set to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the Please Please Me LP, this multi-media show is an absolute must-see for Beatle fans of all ages. It’s not the Beatles, but you simply won’t believe it! Don’t miss this incredible musical and visual experience.
