The Beagles    At Amigos Cantina
July 14th 2007 starting at 7;30
Gosford at Index, Bakersfield  398 1300
 
The Beagles say they are they only Beatles tribute band in Bakersfield and they may be. Do you know any others? I don't.  Note there's  only one letter difference between the two names,  This band is made up of 4 Latinos,  Two great front men, the lead singer and the one guitarist, Both engaged the audience with much professionalism. This band has tons of experience, and talent.
 Well, Im a Beatle freak, I must say I know every chord and lead line and all the words to every song, So I was extra weary of them, thinking I was going to see a cheap imitation, I was rewarded with a great true to the Beatles band, that even Ringo would  be proud of !
   The Beatles remain a very popular group, still one of the best selling groups on earth even thou they broke up 38 years ago, imagine that!    Name one other group that can boast that!
 The performance was excellent, every note was perfect, every line sung in tune and with gusto and much fun resulted, Everyone in the audience sang every song with them, including me. It was allot of fun and very entertaining. The 1st set were all Beatles songs, good ones too, the ones we remember best,  the drums were right on and the bass as well,  One could tell they were having fun on stage and told jokes to us.  The lead singer also played key boards as well, with much aplomb , I must say, These men have talent.
   During the 2nd set and then on, different  they played songs from the 60's and early 70's to the all aged people dancing and singing,
    They didn't play a bad song, Even when they played, "Birthday" By the Beatles, (really a Paul song) every one was thrilled, and they played it well, even though they didn't play it exactly the same as the Beatles but they played it good and everyone enjoyed the Beagles that night including me.
  I'd recommend this band to anyone who wants a good clear exciting night out,  I give 'em 4 out of 5 stars.
