I saw a film today...
Like... The Beatles are pleased to announce the release of their first two demo videos, which can be found on our Sound & Vision page. The videos show live studio performances of the band playing Hey Jude and She Loves You.

Above: The band performing a live studio version of Hey Jude. David Frost (or his own tribute act, Michael Sheen) wasn't available.

With our show being as much about what we look like and how we act as it is about how we accurately recreate the music, we think this is the best way for people to see what we can do. Keep checking back as we plan to add more exciting and ambitious videos in the future.

Good Lords! What a Night!
Last night saw Like... The Beatles make their debut appearance at Lords Golf & Country Club in Rayleigh, Essex.

Above: The band helping the crowd at Lords to Get Back!

The sold-out £25 a head sit down meal and Beatles night was an overwhelming success, with the fantastic crowd up and dancing by the time we played our second song. A number of the people who came to see us also offered some fantastic comments and feedback to the band at the end of the night, which included:

"You've taken me back 45 years!"

"I saw the original Beatles all those years ago and you brought it all back!'

"It was great the way you did their early stuff, but then moved on to their later material."

"Your performance was better than bands we've seen at The Cavern!"

"Fantastic show - you were brilliant!"

Love Is In The Air....................
Last weekend saw Like... The Beatles attend their first (and hopefully not last) wedding fair!

With a large stand displaying some of the many fine vintage instruments we use, as well as costumes from our Shea Stadium, Hard Days Night and Sgt Pepper collections among others, we provided a mini-museum of Beatle goodies!

Above: The band showing off just some of our vintage and replica instruments for happy couples-to-be!.

We also had some brilliant Lennon/McCartney acoustic sessions [thanks Ringo! - John] to show prospective clients a taste of how to make their wedding..........FAB. John and Paul took advantage of the opportunity to perform some acoustic rarities such as In Spite of All The Danger, Words of Love and Revolution 1.

With loads of interest and some wedding bookings already taken, it looks like the band will be helping to make the wedding days of some great couples extra special.

We also met a lot of really nice industry people who gave us lots of new ideas, so all in all it was a brilliant weekend for Like...The Beatles!

You're Such a Lovely Audience!
Last night saw Like... The Beatles take to the stage for the first time in 2010 by making a triumphant return to the Sutton Arms in Southend - the band's 3rd appearance at the venue.

Above: The band showing off the latest addition to their wardrobe - grey Chesterfield suits!.

As always, the crowd was up for a night of Beatlemania, and we were only too happy to oblige. A fine 2-hour pub singalong was enjoyed by all!

The band return to the Sutton Arms on 1st May 2010, so we hope to see you all again! Thanks to all of our regular supporters who braved the cold to come out to see us!

We wish you a merry Christmas, and a happy New Year - let's make it a good one!
Hello Beatley Peopley!

Last night saw the band take their final bow for 2009 (and indeed for this decade!) at the Riga Music Bar in Southend-on-Sea. Despite it being a Sunday night and there being Arctic-like conditions for the audience to contend with, a brilliant crowd came out to see our especially Christmas-themed show. Well, we had a tree and some sparkly lights at least!

Above: The band through the ages - Beatlemania, Sgt. Pepper and Abbey Road sets..

Special thanks to everyone who made the effort (and risked life and limb!) to come out and see us - we really do appreciate it. Riga is one of our favourite Essex venues, so we certainly hope to make a return appearance or two next year - keep checking our list of upcoming gigs!

Well, that's it for another year, but we already have a busy January, so we'll see you soon - keep it fab!!
