RAIN - 2/15/2009 http://www.artsandculture.msu.edu/database_eventview.asp?id=627 EXPERIENCE WHAT BEATLEMANIA WAS ALL ABOUT! FROM ED SULLIVAN TO ABBEY ROAD! RAIN covers the Fab Four from the earliest beginnings through the psychedelic 60s and their long-haired hippie, hard rocking rooftop days. It's a multi-media, multi-dimensional experience which fuses music, historical and hilarious footage together from the 1960s. The Boston Herald cheers "Uncanny! RAIN is a quartet of fine musicians in their own right...as The Beatles, they triumph!" They'll be singing favorites including "Let It Be," "Hey Jude," "Come Together," and "Can't Buy Me Love." Do not miss RAIN!!
