Bootleg Beatles back for more

THE Bootleg Beatles have been together for 30 years - which is more than three times the length of time that the actual Beatles were together.

On Sunday at the Usher Hall, the fabricated four return to the Capital once more to recreate the experience that people might have had when they saw The Beatles play live.

From Lennon’s quips to McCartney’s gestures, Ringo’s goofy smile to George’s trademark ‘Liverpool Leg’, these winkle-pickered wannabes have their heroes down pat.

As in previous visits, the Bootleg Beatles’ annual Christmas show will encompass all of the eras during the Beatles’ long and successful reign over the pop world.
