I wasn’t sure what to expect from an evening with the pre-Fab four but any excuse to be in the same room as Neil Innes<\/a> should be grabbed with both hands. Anyone familiar with the Beatles story obviously loves the Rutles movie (All you need is cash)<\/a> and the songs that parrallel the originals in a loving, respectful way that gives them a life of their own. I took my soon to be 16-year-old Matty along to this and without him, I think I’d have been the youngest in the room – he really enjoyed it though…..<\/p>\n

I was a bit worried this would feel like a cabaret act but that was swept away as they started with my favourite ‘I must be in Love’ and did 2 sets of beautiful Beatle-esque tunes that stand up as well as the originals. Bizzare to think that drummer ‘Barry Wom’ (John Halsey) was the drummer on Lou Reeds ‘Transformer’ LP – rock royalty! and to hear him sing ‘Living in Hope’…….a joy!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

They did 2 covers – The Travelling Willbury’s ‘Handle with care’ and George Harrison’s ‘All things must pass’ which fitted in well, but it’s the originals that had you laughing and singing along ‘Ouch’ ‘With a girl like you’ ‘Piggy in the Middle’ (beware the effects of tea) and ‘Love Life’…….every one a winner<\/p>\n
