From Ed Sullivan to Abbey Road-Rain A Tribute to the Beatles

Debuts at the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center

The award-winning Beatles concert, RAIN – A Tribute To The Beatles, makes its debut at the Wicomico Youth and Civic Center for one show only, on November 22, 2009. In a show the Denver Post calls “the next best thing to seeing The Beatles,” RAIN boasts a repertoire of nearly 200 Beatlemaniac favorites, ranging from such beloved songs as “Yesterday” and “Hey Jude” to classic hits including “Revolution” and “Come Together.”

RAIN covers the Fab Four from their very first Ed Sullivan Show appearance through the Abbey Road album, through the psychedelic late 60sand their long-haired hippie, hard-rocking rooftop days. RAIN is a multi-media, multi-dimensional experience...a fusion of historical footage and hilarious television commercials from the 1960s lights up video screens and live cameras zoom in for close-ups. 

For the four longtime band members – Joey Curatolo (Paul McCartney), Joe Bithorn (George Harrison), Ralph Castelli (Ringo Starr) and Steve Landes (John Lennon), with a little help from their friend Mark Lewis (keyboards, percussion) – the music is first and foremost.  For more than two decades, RAIN has distinguished itself by focusing on details, always being faithful to The Beatles with the ultimate goal of delivering a perfect note-for-note performance.  All the music is performed live, with no pre-recorded tapes or sequences. 

Like The Beatles, the onstage members of RAIN are not only supreme musicians, but electrifying performers in their own right.   Tickets are on sale now and begin at $36.50 plus fees.  Charge by phone at 410-548-4911, visit www.WicomicoCivicCenter.org or the Civic Center Box Office at 500 Glen Avenue in Salisbury, MD .
