It started as just a vague Hollywood rumour: four of the top performers from some of the nation's top Beatle shows had "COME TOGETHER" to develop a multimedia extravaganza - - - a cultural timepiece called, REVOLUTION . .
Within 6 months, the momentum had skyrocketed! Their own "MANIA" had taken hold - - - the excitement was tangible. Radio stations (including L.A.'s own KGIL, the "ALL BEATLES STATION") filled the air with endorsements: "You've got to catch these guys! They're amazing! If you don't see anyone else, this is the Beatles act you won't want to miss!" The region's top clubs jockeyed for bookings. Name celebrities - - - including members of competing Beatle Acts and musicians such as former Wings lead guitarist Denny Lane - - - began showing up at the gigs. A Florida tour launched a string of national appearances. REVOLUTION - - THE BEATLES TRIBUTE was born.
