Shopping for the big Beatles fan in the family this season?
Well, we’ve got a suggestion: Get that loved one (with impeccable musical taste) some tickets to see the acclaimed Beatles tribute act Rain doing its cool holiday show.
Yes, it should be a totally Fab (Four) evening when “Rain — A Beatles Christmas Tribute” hits the Golden Gate Theatre in San Francisco on Dec. 23.
Some fans might have seen Rain before — maybe even several times before. And that’s very understandable, given that people just rave about the ensemble’s take on all those classic rock tunes from John, Paul, George and Ringo.
But this is a brand-new holiday edition of the Rain show, which gives the Fab Four a colorful Christmastime twist. Think “Magical Mystery Tour,” only dressed up with sleigh bells and Christmas wreaths, and you get the picture.
The setlists that we’ve seen for the show have included such amazing Beatles favorites as “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “Please Please Me,” “Can’t Buy Me Love,” “A Hard Day’s Night” and “In My Life” as well as such Christmas standards as “Jingle Bell Rock,” “The Christmas Song” and “Run Run Rudolph.”
Again, anyone who’s seen Rain knows that it does a great job conjuring up that classic Beatles magic — from the sound to the look to the vibe. That’s why Rain has been a popular concert attraction for a half century and counting.
Yet, this debut Christmas tour represents a new chapter for Rain, resulting in what promoters are promising to be “a Beatles tribute like you’ve never seen before.”
Showtime is 7:30 p.m. and tickets start at $33.93, broadwaysf.com.
