RAIN: A Tribute To The Beatles

The day before the 50th anniversary of the Beatles' arrival in New York City, RAIN: A Tribute to the Beatles, perform at the Washington Pavilion in Sioux Falls on Thursday, February 6th, at 7:30 p.m. RAIN performs the full range of The Beatles' discography live onstage, including the most complex and challenging songs that The Beatles themselves recorded in the studio but never performed for an audience. In addition to the updated sets that include brand new LED, High-Definition screens and multimedia content, new songs have also been included with the launch of the 2013-14 Tour. Steve Landes is a life-long, second-generation Beatles fan. He taught himself guitar at 10 listening to Beatles records and by 13 was fronting a Top 40 cover band in his native Philadelphia. At 17 he joined Beatlemania and further developed his musicianship, touring the world with the show. Landes, who joined RAIN in 1998, also writes and records his own original music. Landes joined Dakota Midday to discuss the event and his love for Beatles music.
