Hard Day's Night: 1964 THE TRIBUTE, dubbed “the No. 1 Beatles tribute band in the world” by Rolling Stone, played five days in New York City. Their fifth concert at Carnegie Hall on 21 January 2005 was sold out.

Band members saw the Broadway musical “Wicked,” and then appeared on the “Scott and Todd” radio show on 95.5 WPLJ, as well as Premiere Radio Network and performed a mini-concert in the Virgin Megastore. 1964 The Tribute began a national campaign, “100 Acts of Support: The Concerts For Tsunami Relief,” held in Virgin Megastores throughout the U.S. to raise money for the victims of the disaster in South Asia. Their appearance garnered a mention on the local 10 p.m. news. The following morning, they appeared on WB 11 “Morning Show,” performing “She Loves You” and “Twist and Shout.”

The band continues their concert tour with stops in Oklahoma City, Dallas, Lakeland, Miami, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Kalamazoo, and Iowa City. For a tour list and additional information on the band, http://www.1964thetribute.com/.

Band members: Mark Benson (John), Gary Grimes (Paul), James Pou (George), and Greg George (Ringo)
