Liverpool Live at The Stage

On my first full night on my recent Florida trip, we went to The Stage to see Liverpool Live. Billed as Florida's Top Beatles Tribute, Liverpool Live lived up to the billing.
The lads started the night in early Beatles black suits, while performing songs from the first few years of the group. Before intermission, they took pictures with folks by the stage. That was a nice touch, especially for picture hounds like me. Now I didn't have to worry about getting a pic after their show.
After intermission, they returned in Sgt. Pepper long coats, while doing songs from the middle years. They took off the coats to reveal the look from Abbey Road, while finishing with the last years of the Fab Four.
It was a great show. I'd say George sounded the most like a Beatle, but they all nailed the spirit and sound. I really liked that they played plenty of the favorites (they couldn't possibly play all the hits), but the also played several lesser-known, but still popular songs.
Liverpool Live also interacted with the audience a bit, but not overly so. They sang "Happy Borthday" to one person, invited a couple to dance and a few other bits of engagement.

Liverpool Live in Florida

I have been a fan of The Beatles since my teen years. I m not easily impressed by cover bands attempting to do their music. Liverpool Live passed that test though.
Earlier this year, I was visiting my sister and brother-in-law in Florida on my birthday weekend. Ever the great hosts, they took me to see Liverpool Live. None of us knew what to expect, but we certainly got more than we hoped.
The boys ripped through a couple hours of the Fab Four's greatest songs.They performed the ballads and the rockers equally well. The singing was excellent and their sound was tight. When a cover band is that good, I always wonder about them playing other music. I'd bet that Liverpool Live would be great either way.
It was a fun night and a wonderful weekend. I really appreciate Scott and Jean treating me so well. It took a bit of the sting off of another birthday passing.
Members of Liverpool Live include past cast members from Disney Orlando. They have played together for a long time. For more info on Liverpool Live, check out TheBandGuys.com.
