Topic: sgt peppers as you've heard it many times before

i just watched this video of a group doing an exact cover of Sgt Pepper, live and just about perfect to the album from start to finish including "within you without you" using Indian instruments and "A Day In the Life"
brilliant!!! they are Dutch and play with an orchestra. this video is well worth watching if you're a true Beatles fan...

Phill

Very Very good -  I Love the Beatles and they were a wonderful reproduction.
I liked the beginning part as well - very interesting getting ready for it. it got me thinking...

What do you guys or girls on here do to get ready for your gigs. Is there a special routine or anything?

15 vodka and tonics plus a large brandy or two then 2 pints of lager?????? no, by the time i've driven to the venue, carried the gear in and set up i have just enough time to get a pint of orange squash and lemonade before hitting the first song. i don't seem to suffer with nerves before a show, sometimes during a song if i forget a bit or go to the wrong part, maybe. but i joke it off if i do.

I just listened to them and they  are great. So close to the originals if you did not know. Good songs and great performance.
