REVIEW: The Bootleg Beatles – Glasgow Royal Concert Hall

As an alternative to the usual Christmas fodder, there’s no better night’s entertainment than the annual Bootleg Beatles show at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall. Thirty six years, several line up changes, and the fab four are sounding better than ever.

Keeping it fresh with a new set list and costumes every year, the crowd as ever, went wild on hearing the expertly chosen and played, selection of hits.

You’d be hard pressed to pick a highlight but as the first chords ring out on the earliest hits you can’t help but smile, and the hits just keep on coming, coupled with the accuracy and skill with which they’re played, the night never fails to be anything less than a rousing success. Worth mentioning too is the especially moving show of solidarity with our friends in Paris during All You Need is Love.

You would need to be incredibly hard of heart not to love this – expertly crafted, this is entertainment at its finest.
