Last Wednesday, my dad, two siblings and I went to The Hard Rock Cafe to check out the Jamnites (?) Beatles event. Man, we had the best night! We're all suckers for the Fab Four. And I especially loved this night for the bonding we had.
Area One started the night with Elenor Rigby. Umpisa pa lang, panalo na! Among the songs they performed, I loved the Paul McCartney combo the most. I'm also extra pleased that they played While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Orange and Lemons presented a much noisier, angstier, drug-laden set. Hehehe... The band said that their new album was kinna inspired by one Beatles song - Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. I wonder if they were inspired by the song or with what the song stands for. Hehe... Man I'm a dimwit.
Then of course, the fabulous Bloomfields. This is a dream come true. I love their Beatles covers! The boys gave us a more rockin' and a-rollin' set. Louie's performance was again, on the top of my list. I definitely loved his Long Tall Sally/I'm Down bit. And when the boys were done playing, the audience just kept asking for more. These boys are the ultimate crowd pleasers!
The fourth band, well, kinna were out of place. I'm not really a huge fan of ska (damn me for that) and arranging the Beatles songs to have a ska feel to them - I guess I'm just not ready for that. Oh well =)
It's literally a Hard Day's Night for me. It's like what they say - work hard, PARTY HARDER!!!
What a precious night. =)
