Sixty years ago, the British Invasion took off, propelled by four lads and a legion of screaming admirers. Now, relive the magic with an evening of The Beatles’ greatest hits, transcribed note-for-note and performed as originally recorded, with four musicians who look and sound just like the original Fab Four! This special show features the set played by The Beatles on their first North American tour in 1964 (which launched at San Francisco’s Cow Palace), in addition to selected favorites from the albums Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, The White Album, Abbey Road, and Let It Be, alongside the San Francisco Symphony.
