New Beatles Tribute band in the Los Angeles area looking for a Lead Guitarist/ Singer. Must be a big fan of the Beatles & already know many of their songs. Does NOT need vintage guitars! We have 'em & you can use them- If you get the part! If you have your own that's great.

We intend to sound as close to the Beatles recordings as possible. We will not look like them. No wigs, costumes or make up. No egos either! We collaborate on all decisions. Everyone gets paid equally when we gig.

If you are serious & interested, contact us at yeoldebeetles@hotmail.com.

I was just discussing tribute bands last night with some guys. I think the market has dried up for most of them, at least around here. Beatlejuice (Brad Delp's old band) is still around, pulling in $2000 gigs (guessing) every other month or so - of course there's like 9 people in the band now, including 3 singers to do what Delp did. Always see folks advertising around here for tribute band members, but very few ads for any tribute bands playing anywhere.

I've heard of the Sellersville Theater before as Todd Rundgren plays there often. I see Journey, Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson and Who tribute bands scheduled there this summer. Must be a Pennsylvania thing!

I know just the guy. He was born to play George in a Beatles tribute band. Knows all the songs they ever did, has a Strat, Les Paul, Rikki, 12 strings, Hoffner bass, even plays some keys:
