A night rockin out with the music of the Beatles was a total success for my 4 daughters first concert. The girls danced, sang, and screamed, while enjoying the Fab Four's journey from Liverpool to rock legends. The performance was outstanding. The music, costumes, and performers were perfect.
DO spend your money and see let it be http://www.letitbelive.com/ if it comes to your town.....i paid $150 (cdn) each for 2 tickets....and it was frigging great....they play their own instruments and sing....and they were bang on for 2 1/2 hours....from the cavern (i saw her standing there) to the encore (hey jude)....the attention to detail was 95% (john did the tongue in the bottom mouth thing but did not stand with his pelvic stance on the sullivan bit, paul was barefoot for the abbey road bits, costumes impeccable, the shea stadium in-jokes were historic footage perfect) ....the performers looked like they were having fun....george's guitar solo to 'my guitar gently sleeps' was note perfect (no easy task - it was eric clapton)...other than john straining on 'strawberry fields forever' and paul a bit off on 'let it be' (ironically) the music was perfect....when they rocked i was up and dancing (revolution, get back, twist and shout, hey jude (the refrain), back in the ussr)...and i am not a dancer in public (especially in a theatre setting)...but my fav was an acoustic bit they did 3/4 in that featured i feel fine (the most underrated beatles song of all time in my humble)....the musicianship was brill....the voices were damn close....john looked like john, paul looked like paul, george almost looked like george (but was a brilliant guitarist)...ringo remained the luckiest man of the 20th century.....three songs they didn't play - ballad of john & yoko, across the universe and yellow submarine)....a song they didn't need to play - when i'm 64....but over 2 1/2 hours i heard everything else i wanted to hear (well, i like polythene pam but hell, that's pretty obscure even by beatle standards)....i was blown away.....the only thing i worry about is i now when i listen to beatle songs will i conjur images from the 'let it be' performances...they were that accurate.....but they were just pseudo....i can't let john become fake john...i guess the thing that impressed me most besides the music being basically note by note perfect was the energy and extra the performers gave....they actually seemed to be having as much fun as we were....i've now seen the beatles in my mind....my wife (who is not a beatles fan and tried to get out of going) came home with a hoarse voice and danced for 1/3 of the concert....she loved it...i was the other side of that...
Amazing! The actors, the music, the sets, the whole production was incredibly well done! Highly recommend this production!
Absolutely a great show! Fun and well performed. Felt like we were actually in the company of the real Beatles.
