Tributes to a Classic Era of Music

Monday, March 05, 2012


We caught up with John Oriettas who plays Paul in  Replay the Beatles.  Here's what he had to say about their show John, Paul, George & Ringo, the band and loving The Beatles!

So, why the Beatles?
Why not Beatles?!  They were the biggest band when we were growing up. And still are the best. 

Does the band have a case of beatlemania?
No just a case of beer once in a while! 

What is your biggest challenge in presenting a tribute to the Beatles?
Doing such an amazing band justice. The music the sound the look.  It is a very high bar to set and attain. 

If you could choose one Beatle to play with you, who would you choose? Why?
I would love to play with all 4, but since I play "Paul" he would be my choice.  

Do you have a favourite Beatles era?
I love 1962-63 when the Beatles were starting to see it all coming together just before the -/!# hit the fan and Beatlemania captured the world. That must have been a very exciting time to be a Beatle. 


If you liked Replay The Beatles, you might enjoy an upcoming tribute to another classic band, The Doors.  Classic Albums Live presents L.A. Woman on April 18 at 8pm.
