/UCWE/ - In a field littered with Beatles cover bands, what makes 1964…THE TRIBUTE (www.1964thetribute.com) stand head and shoulders above the rest?  Could it be honing their craft with over 3,000 shows in 23 years that makes this the #1 Beatles Tribute Band in the world?  Perhaps their worldwide audience of fans who return year after year is the answer.
 
With Beatlemania still all around us - from a new Las Vegas stage show and live cast recording to a controversial documentary about John Lennon and reissue of the definitive George Harrison Bangladesh concert album - the Beatles continue to be wildly popular 43 years after they invaded America.   What keeps crowds of thousands returning annually to Beatlesfests internationally?  What keeps Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr the world’s most sought after celebrities?
 
With the advent of new media like YouTube.com, fans new and old still revisit the Beatles on the Internet daily.  The name “Beatles” is among the most searched term on Google.com.  Sure, you keep memories of the Fab Four alive via the World Wide Web, but no one will ever attend a live Beatles concert again.  So the closest you can get is to attend a 1964…THE TRIBUTE show where these amazingly talented musicians expertly recreate the music, personalities, humor and physical attributes of John, Paul, George and Ringo.
 
Much more than a mere concert, 1964…THE TRIBUTE has been performing their magical reenactment internationally for over 20 years, earning the title “Best Beatles Tribute Band on Earth.  Now 1964…THE TRIBUTE returns for their unprecedented seventh concert at New York City’s Carnegie Hall on January 27^th 2007 at 8pm, remaining the only tribute act ever to play that hallowed venue.  After a year that saw them play Shea Stadium on the 40^th anniversary of the Beatles last concert there, and a sold out show at the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado, 1964…THE TRIBUTE will once again be accompanied on stage by string and horn sections as they recreate such Beatles classics as “Eleanor Rigby” and “Got To Get You Into My Life.”
 
Over the past 20 years, 1964…THE TRIBUTE have averaged 160 shows annually, bringing their precise representation of the Beatles into the hearts of fans, young and old around the globe.  The band has played to packed houses throughout the US as well as in England, Canada, Germany, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Chile, Mexico, Austria and Portugal.
