THE FAB FOUR IN CONCERT:
You know the saying: if it walks like a Beatle, if it talks like a Beatle...it must be The Fab Four, the world's foremost Beatles tribute band. The California-based quartet have been reviving Beatlemania with their spot-on impersonations for over 12 years, and practice has made perfect — the band's tours consistently satisfy the Beatle-shaped hole in fans' souls, drawing rave reviews for their extensively researched, down-to-the-mannerisms enactments of late great band's legendary live concerts. The Fab Four continue to carry on The Beatles' legacy in 2014, hitting the road with their beloved show on a string of North American tour dates.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Founded in 1997 by John Lennon impersonator Ron McNeil, The Fab Four spent their early days touring Southern California and playing regular shows at Disneyland. As the band's reputation grew, they landed an increasing number of high-profile gigs, including a headlining slot at Liverpool's annual Beatleweek in 2004 and a residency in Vegas from 2005-2008. Since then, the band has taken their show around the world, keeping the memory of John, Paul, George, and Ringo alive and rocking.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"What a great performance. It was like we were actually watching and listening to the Beatles live.”
"If you like The Beatles' music, and who doesn't, you owe it to yourself to see this band. They talk like The Beatles, they sing like The Beatles, they look like The Beatles, and they play like The Beatles."
"Took my 11 y/o son who is the biggest Beatles fan I know to see the Fab Four in Reading, PA. I felt like I was watching THE Beatles live in 2013! They sounded spot on & I loved how they got the crowd involved in the show."

My husband and I attended this event as part of our anniversay celebration. It was truly an amazing experience.
This event was great. These guys really put on a performance. If you have ever enjoyed even one Beatle song YOU MUST SEE THIS!
I never saw the Beatles live, however, from all the videos I have seen, this band is as much like the original Beatles as you can get. There is not going to be allot of tech stuff or stage theatrics but why would there be. My 13 year old daughter is a Beatles nut and she loved the concert. At this venue we were not restricted from taking pictures or video during the concert. Wished I had brought my video camera. A delightful concert.
They were great, but wish I had better/closer seats. a little too far away to really enjoy the 4 guys. if it were a play they would be fine. not your fault I should have called sooner. vision(nobody's head in my face) and leg room were great, so the only problem is I prefer closer seats.
I was amazed at these guys talent. They have worked hard to study the Beatles to have their expressions as well as music down! Their music with todays instruments were better to me than the Beatles. It is a show I would go to see again. FIRST CLASS!
We had wonderful seats even though we were up in row V. The group was good and we sang along to all the old Beatles music. It was great if you're a fan of The Beatles.
Thsi is the frist time I had seen the Fab Four and it was a great concert.
Another great show by The Fab Four. My wife and I have seen the tour group and the Vegas group for the fifth time and it hasn't been a disappointment yet. Eventhough some of the personell have changed over the last few years, some better than others, they still "bring it big time". The fellow that portrayed John in the last Mobile, AL show could improve his guitar playing some. Overall Great sound, great fun, The Fab Four is who every Beatles fan should see, no doubt!
Everything from the Ed Sullivan Look alike to the music and the comedy was superb. You won't be able to stop yourself from singing along. The post show meet & greet was really nice as well.
I really enjoyed the show, and especially, watching my older sister, smile through the whole show. She was a teenager during the early beetle era and I was a bit younger. She and I just had a super time reminiscing during the show. The Fab Four are dynamic and really keep the audience actively involved which, I really liked. They had several standing ovations, which you don't see all that often today.
When The Fab Four first appeared on Stage my 2 sisters & I looked at each other & giggled. They looked so much like the Beatles of our teenage years. They were great and brought us all back to the good 'ole days. For 2 hrs everyone in the audience was involved in the show and forgetting that we are actually in the year 2011. Loved it!
This was one of the best shows I've ever seen. It starts with beatle Trivia on a large screen then Ed Sullivan comes out and starts things going. Everyone looked so authentic. The music was unreal it sounded like you were really hearing the Beatles live! The costumes were great but it was the music that blew me away! They got the audience up and dancing and everyone looked like they were having a great time. I would see them again. Fantastic show!!!
This was the most amazing show ever. It was hard to believe it was not the real beatles.
These guys are incredibly amazing. They actually make you feel like you are back in time.The Beatles and there music will live forever in the hearts of all Beatle fans. Music in my opion is the heart and and soul . The Beatles may be gone but the Fab Four will keep the love and passion of their legacy alive in my heart and in all Beatle fans who who have attended one of their shows.
I've seen the Fab Four, four times. They keep doing consistently great shows. I've never been disappointed. I will probably keep going to their shows every time they come through New England. If they are still doing this in 20 years I will be there even if they have to wheel me in on a gurney! If you compare them to other Beatles tributes you easily see they are the best. (I'm not including the the Fab Faux in the following comparison because they have a different approach to their great sounding shows. I'm sure the Fab Four have a lot of respect for them.) The Fab Four live up to the knick name of the Beatles. They make all the other tributes that try to create the flavor of the Beatles look like garage bands. If you have never heard the Beatles live this is as close as you are going to get. McCartney rightfully has a license to do whatever he wants to Beatles songs when you go to see him. These guys take no liberties because they know how much it means to everyone else not to mess with the music. The show is dramatic because of this alone. When you add to that the fact that they have finely tailored costumes and the hair and mannerisms down, it is so much like the Beatles that you have to tell yourself it isn't the Beatles rather than convince yourself it is. If you go see them and don't feel the same way I would find that hard to fathom. Go ahead...compare their live videos with any other tribute and you'll see they make the rest look like a shoe in on amateur night. When you consider they do music that the Beatles had no intention of performing live. It is amazing. They nail it every time. Oh...and did I tell you I think they sound great?
This was an awesome event - not only were "The Fab Four" terrific in their representation of the Beatles, but "Ed Sullivan" provided great sustenance as well to the overall show! Would definitely go again!!! We brought our three daughters, 12 years old, and they were in awe~
Entire family went to show. Kids ranging in age from 9 to 16...it was great! The Ed Sullivan guy told some off color jokes, not really so bad ...the youngest did not get them..so The show was great...Paul was spot on...as was George and the later John ( with the long hair was spot on also) No intermission just 2 hrs of music...loved it...just long enough..
So much fun! Very "Beatle-like"!! Would definitely see again!
We got there early and had seats close to the front. The music was on key the band closely resembled the originals. They got the audience involved from the start from the introduction from Ed Sullivan to the closing hey Jude. They didnt take a pause in the middle of the show like most tribute bands...they played right through....They are ....I would even say upthere alittle better than rain which we have seen 4 times at various venues....1964 the tribute is up there also...All 3 are very close in originality with each other but each has their own uniqueness which makes each band great in their own,,,,all in all loved it ...and would definately see again...
My first time seeing the Fab Four. The best Beatles tribute band I've seen. Better than Beatlemania. The Fab Four looked, sounded and acted like the real Beatles. Growning up in the sixties I never had the chance to see the Beatles in person. The Fab Four has to be the next best thing. Hopefully they will come back to Springfield with a new repertoire, just to keep thier act fresh.
