**UPDATE Daily Collegian Article** This Friday 2/6 Beatlemania Now Wants To Hold Your Hand at The State

UPDATE: Beatlemania Now was featured in an article in today's 2/5 Daily Collegian. Read the Article HERE!

This Friday The State welcomes Beatlemania Now, a very talented and world renowned Beatles tribute band. In case you missed the first post on this heavily anticipated upcoming show you can find that info HERE. Below you can find some more information from the band's website about how they came to be so well known for their act:

"BEATLEMANIA NOW!"...formed from members of the original Tony-award winning Broadway musical, has toured worldwide, performing to countless audiences since 1984.

"BEATLEMANIA NOW!" is the Ultimate Multi-Media Beatles Stage Show touring the world today! Through six scenes (and accompanying costume changes) witness the dramatic impact, and feel the pure nostalgia, as Beatlemania Now recaptures the excitement, mood and frantic intensity of the 1960's all set against a stunning multi-media backdrop of live images and visual montages featuring news clips, documentary reels, and movie and concert footage (all carefully assembled by a crew of more than thirty historians, artists, film editors, and researchers)!

Meticulously faithful to the original music, Beatlemania Now's four member cast recreate, note for note, over 35 classic songs in an extravaganza that retraces the entire career of the greatest cultural phenomenon of all time...


Not impressed? Well you can visit Beatlemania Now's Myspace Page and listen to a couple of their renditions of Beatles tunes to hear for yourself. If you ask me these guys have got just what any Beatles fan is looking for in a tribute band. Below you can view a couple of videos of Beatlemania Now:
