Rutlemania: The Rutles The Fab Four Come to New York
Live Music, Tour Dates March 10th, 2008
The Rutles 30th Anniversary Reunion
Obviously, thanks in large part to the success of my previous post, The Rutles The Fab Four (a Beatles tribute band featuring none of the original Rutles) are making their way to NYC for a four night residency at the Blender Theater on March 26-29. Tickets go on sale Tuesday, 03/11/08 at 10:00 AM.
UPDATE: As the commenter below correctly pointed out, this concert WILL NOT FEATURE ANY OF THE ORIGINAL RUTLES. Up until today, it was being advertised as a Rutles concert on Livenation.com and only this morning was that information changed to show The Fab Four as the featured performers, not The Rutles. If I were you, I’d ask for my money back.

this is not the Rutles. This is a Beatles Tribute band called The fab Four doing a tribute concert of the Rutles. Although presented by Eric Idle (one of the originators of The Rutles tv show), this live concert features NONE of the original Rutles performing.
What a rip! Thanks to these posts, I was able to get a refund. Thanks for the info—if I had shown up and found this out at showtime, I would have gone off!
