If you are an Apple fan or pay attention to music news you’ve undoubtly heard about Apple’s “Tomorrow is just another day. That you’ll never forget.” teaser leading up to this morning’s announcement that The Beatles catalogue is now available on iTunes. Beatles fans have been waiting a long time for this!
In the spirit of good music and Beatles love we wanted to share a bit of their music, Music Circus style! Here’s a video clip from RAIN- A Tribute to The Beatles from the 2010 season. The RAIN guys are great, offering spot on music and frequent costume changes to keep the show lively as the group takes audiences through the full Beatles arch – from the Ed Sullivan Show to Sgt. Pepper. Keep an eye on our website to see if RAIN will be back in 2011. In the meantime, relive a little bit of the summer of 2010 as the weather gets colder outside!
