REVIEW: Rain Tribute 4/29/09

The Rain Tribute tour made a stop in Anaheim last night at the beautiful The Grove of Anaheim.

The Beatles tribute band walked the crowd their the complete fab four discography. They opened the show with video clips from the early 60's including commercials for popular items of the era, and segments from the Ed Sullivan show. Following the video the band broke into "I want to hold your hand" followed by a wonderful rendition of "All my Loving." The band worked through a few more favorites from the era before switching gears and costumes to mimic the Shea Stadium era.

After performing 15 songs from the "A Hard Days Night" era, they transitioned the stage and complete persona changes and came out in full Sgt. Peppers regalia.

The venue was completely packed with 4 generations of music lovers. Everyone was in complete sing and dance mode, many times jumping out of their seats and twisting and shouting their way through many favorites.

This was definitely one of my favorite shows of the year, at one of my favorite venues.
