I am going to see the Bootleg Beatles very soon in concert...i have heard that they are the best Beatles tribute band around...have you seen them?...i want to know if they sound like the originals and if the mannerisms/dresses are more or less the same...will it be a good show?...

its good timing you posted this now-i'm going to see them on friday night!
i've seen them twice before at free gigs and they were brilliant.They do all the in-between song banter "john" does jokes,"paul" falters when introducing songs etc just like at original Beatles concerts and they all speak in the scouse accents plus they make in-jokes referring to real life incidents (Yoko,Allen Klein,Apple Corp etc) which being a Beatle fanatic I found amusing

Also what i like about them is that they dont just do early crowd pleasing dancey songs-they also do unexpected songs like "A day in the life","Strawberry fields" and some stuff from "Abbey road" usually too.Hope you have a good time!

I'll second all that, they are really good, and reproduce the Beatles 'sound' extremely well.
