The acclaimed Beatles concert RAIN – A Tribute to the Beatles makes its Bay Area debut for eight performances only Tuesday, October 26 thru Sunday, October 31. 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 opens at the San Jose Center for the Performing Arts for one week only October 26-31.
RAIN covers the Fab Four from their very first Ed Sullivan Show appearance through the Abbey Road album, through the psychedelic late 60s and their long-haired hippie, hard-rocking rooftop days. RAIN is a multi-media, multi-dimensional experience: a fusion of historical footage and hilarious 1960s television commercials lighting up video screens as live cameras zoom in over the audience for close-ups.
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.
