The Beatles historic Vancouver performance in 1964 is to be re-enacted live by the Beatles tribute band the Fab Fourever as part of their 50th Anniversary Tour.

The Fab Fourever, Canada�s Complete Beatles Experience, is celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Beatles only performance in Vancouver by re-enacting the historic concert that changed popular music in the Western World.

The Beatles 1964 tour for many signaled a new era in popular music and the show in Vancouver on August 22nd was a sign of the group�s overwhelming overnight success. Screaming girls, fainting fans, a near riot and memories that have lasted a lifetime are all that remains. Now you can prepare to roll back the years to a time when the music was the soundtrack to a generation; music that transported four young lads from a small club in Liverpool to Empire Stadium in Vancouver and then onward to become the musical icons of the century.

�So many people love the Beatles, but didn�t get the chance to see them perform live,� says Jody Tennant who plays the role of Paul McCartney, �now they can re-live the entire Vancouver concert from start to finish as it was played at Empire Stadium 50 years ago.� Kevin Davey as John Lennon adds �the first set we take you on a journey from the Beatles performance on the Ed Sullivan show in early �64, to their full Vancouver show a mere 6 months after they conquered America.� Davey adds �for the second set, we perform selections from their accomplished studio albums like Magical Mystery Tour, Sgt. Pepper, The White Album, Let It Be and Abbey Road.�

It is said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. For Beatles super-fans Jody Tennant (Paul), Kevin Davey (John), Jean-Luc Perron (George), Paul Kaszonyi (Ringo) and Blake Mackay (keyboards) the proverb holds true: The Fab Fourever is a musical production performing all of the memorable hits live, without any vocal overdubs or pre-recorded music. Songs like �She Loves You,� �I Want to Hold Your Hand,� �I Saw Her Standing There,� �Please Please Me,� �Twist and Shout,� �A Hard Day�s Night,� �Yellow Submarine,� �Penny Lane,� �Strawberry Fields Forever,� �A Day In The Life,� �Hey Jude,� �Get Back� and many more tunes are performed with precision and respect.

This is a visually stunning tour de force delivered with all the raw energy, witty humor, and undeniable charisma that were the hallmarks of the Fab Four. With vintage period-specific instruments, several full costume changes, and a multi-media backdrop, The Fab Fourever spare no detail with this production. From the Beatles� invasion of America, through Sgt. Pepper and all the way to Abbey Road, their enjoyment of the music translates into a passion and an energy onstage that makes for a tremendous show.

Enjoy the experience!
