This Friday, Michael Wrycraft presents Twist & Shout: A Tribute to the Beatles at Hugh's Room in Toronto, Canada. It promises to be, as all Man Called Wrycraft presentations, an eclectic and astounding line-up of musicians to celebrate one of the greatest musical groups of our time.

Also performing will be Scott McCord & the Bonafide Truth Horn Section, Toronto Blues Society's 2009 New Blues Band of the Year with a wicked Horn Section, Michael Occhipinti with Lester McLean, eight-time Juno nominee and one of the great Canadian Jazz Guitarists with a fantastic Toronto R&B/Soul Singer, Alejandra Ribera, a passionate, intense singer/songwriter, the buzz about Alejandra over this last year has been huge, and Maury Lafoy and Graham Powell with pure pop harmonies from the founding members of The Supers.

All in all, 38 great musicians in 8 acts performing around 20 Beatles songs.

Twist & Shout: A Tribute to the Beatles takes place on Friday, September 3, 2010 (Labour Day Weekend) at 8:30pm sharp at Hugh's Room, which is located at 2261 Dundas St. W., Toronto.

The Overtures is best show of Beatles week 2010 so far

The Overtures is best show of Beatles week 2010 so far
[Posted by Katie Hickox on Saturday, 08/28/10 7:09 pm] [Full Blog] [Related Posts] [Tweet This]
One of the highlights of this year's Liverpool Beatles Festival was last night's Overtures concert which was jam packed with brilliant authentic renditions of sixties bands such as the Kinks, the Who, the Searchers, the Animals, the Turtles, the Birds, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and many, many more along with a superb video clips of old sixties news and commercials and fashion in which London was the mod capital of the world.

About the Overtures, the Cavern City Tours Beatle Week 2010 guidebook says, "Having begun 2009 with Sir Elton's invitation to suport him at this New Year's Eve show for 17000 people at the OxArena, the year ended just as memorably when The Overtures were asked by Sir Paul McCartney to entertain at his aftershow party at the same venue."
From first hand experience attending their concert last night at Liverpool's Philharmonic, I can attest that their show is one of the top shows for any retrospective of the very best of sixties, and last night was the very first time I have ever seen so many sixties classics such as The Turtles "Happy Together" or The Doors' "Light My Fire".
Wow! And it's only getting better everyday! Stay tuned!

Beatles’ rock band gets a release date.

Fire up your XBOX 360's and get ready to rock the wiimote Rickenbakcers and Casios my friends.  The Beatles are coming soon to a video game console near you.  It looks like I may need to finally upgrade my video game system because of this.  I am still running an Nintendo 64 and an XBOX. 


The time has come to upgrade and this may be the thing that pushes me to do it.  9.9.09 catchy.  John’s lucky numbers just seem to pop up everywhere even after he’s gone.


Here’s what we’ve read.



The music of the Beatles will arrive as a playable video game for the first time on September 9, 2009 when The Beatles: Rock Band hits stores in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. The game, which will be available for Xbox, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii on the same day, “takes players on a journey through the legacy and evolution of the band’s legendary career,” according to a press release issued by the title’s makers, Apple Corps, Harmonix and MTV Games. While there’s no playlist or word about venues and avatars, there will be a limited number of instruments issued that are modeled after guitars, basses and drums John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr used (regular Rock Band peripherals will be compatible, too).


Three offerings will be released on September 9th: The Beatles: Rock Band software; standalone guitars; and a limited edition premium bundle that will presumably include the game and some configuration of instruments. And there’s an incentive to pre-order now: the game’s makers say exclusive content will be accessible to those who reserve the game in advance through major retailers over the next few months. The game’s official Website is active and promises updates.


McCartney, Starr, Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison are all backing the game, which is being overseen by Love co-producer Giles Martin. Rumors that Beatles music would finally come to Rock Band or Guitar Hero fired up in June 2008 after insiders speculated that the appearance of the Fab Four’s music in American Idol, the film Across the Universe and the Cirque du Soleil Love production indicated Apple Corps might be willing to loosen their famously tight grip on the band’s catalog. In October 2008 the game’s makers made it official, announcing, “This game will take you on a journey from the Beatles first album Please Please Me until the last album at Abbey Road,” as Apple Corps CEO Jeff Jones put it. “It will span samples of the whole catalog all the way through.” At the time, McCartney added, “I like people having the opportunity to get to know the music from the inside out.”


The game will be the first Rock Band title specifically branded to a band, though the game does offer full albums; the Guitar Hero series includes special versions for Aerosmith and Metallica (exclusive preview here).
