I thought Paul was terrible in just about every aspect, i.e. looks, hair, dress, singing and actions (mannerisms).
The guys I saw last night were outstanding. I would recommend them to anyone interested in seeing an excellent Beatles tribute.

Karl Lornie of The Beatles Celebration came to our club meeting yesterday and we chatted for a bit. He explained to me that they just came over for this one gig and left most of their equipment back in Liverpool. It makes a big difference when these bands have the correct equipment and their own equipment. Playing with borrowed equipment can affect a performance.

There are several regional Beatles tributes in the area. I can't recall their names, but many have Beat in their names because The Beatles had beat in their names.
