I don&#8217;t know, I&#8217;m not sure, I hate to say it, but Sweetie and I agreed that these guys might be better musicians than the original Fab Four. Could it be? &nbsp;Their&nbsp;performance&nbsp;was dazzling.<\/p>\n<p>It was a multimedia type presentation and I appreciated how it unfolded. They went roughly chronologically and spent some time on the famous performance at Shea Stadium with some video from the era. What got me was how well dressed the concert goers back then were. They were crying and screaming but they dressed better than most people did at my church&#8217;s Easter service on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>What got me about the Beatles way back when was how their music went from simple and sappy to incredibly complex. Just the way the 60&#8217;s were. The 60&#8217;s was very unsettling and the show reflected that.<\/p>\n<p>I give the show four stars out of four. Go see it if you can.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"480\" height=\"385\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/EcHNMEtFcxk&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/EcHNMEtFcxk&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Here is a segment that CBS did on Rain a couple years ago.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"480\" height=\"385\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/7VSiQ9TawX4&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/7VSiQ9TawX4&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday afternoon Sweetie saw the matinee of the &#8220;Rain&#8221; the Beatles tribute playing downtown at the Performing Arts Center.
