93 XRT presents Tributosaurus Becomes THE BEATLES, VOL 5
Partial Proceeds Benefit the Betty Hemmert Music Scholarship Fund

When we started our Beatles odyssey, to perform all of their recorded songs from start to finish, we had this show in the back of our minds. This was the turning point for them, and many think it is the crown jewel of the finest musical catalog ever created. Rolling Stone called Sgt Pepper “The most important Rock & Roll album ever made” - and who are we to argue? But we won’t stop there - we will also perform all of Magical Mystery Tour, including the singles from 1967 (who but the Beatles would release a song like “Penny Lane” as a single only?).

These songs have been covered thousands of times by hundreds of bands, but we will take things one step further, bringing in the full complement of orchestral and world instrumentalists needed to faithfully re-create the sounds we all know by heart. Whether it’s the haunting harp intro of “She’s Leaving Home”, the 2 violas on “Hello Goodbye”, the clarinet trio on “When I’m 64”, the trumpet quartet on “Magical Mystery Tour”, or the full orchestral bombast of “A Day in the Life” and “I Am the Walrus” - we will bring it to the stage in all its glory.

We have partnered with 93XRT to make this special event happen, and $5 of each ticket sold will go to the Betty Hemmert Music Scholarship Fund , helping kids who need help to pursue their interest in music. Some of us are music educators ourselves, or the children of music educators, so the fund named for Teri’s late mother and teacher is something we wholeheartedly support.

An event like this requires a special venue, and we have found the perfect place. The Copernicus Center Theater was the first movie palace in Chicago designed for talking pictures, and it has been restored to its’ original condition and outfitted for live performance. We could not believe this place is still a bit of a secret, and neither will you. It is incredibly convenient - located just a block from the Kennedy on Lawrence, and 2 blocks from Metra and Blue Line stops at Jefferson Park Terminal. From the starry sky ceiling to the marble clad lobbies, everything about this theater impresses, and the acoustics are fantastic too. 

This show is our largest and most complex undertaking to date, and it promises to be a night no music fan will want to miss. Tickets go on sale this Friday, August 31st at 10AM on Tributosaurus.com and CopernicusCenter.org, as well as at WXRT.com. Tickets are ONLY available online (no box office sales). The seating is assigned, so you’ll want to get yours ordered as soon as you can to reserve the section you want - and bring your kids to experience this - it is an ALL AGES show.

VAN HALEN IN APRIL!

Hide the brown M&Ms and take the spandex out of the closet, because Van Halen is up next! Virtuoso guitar, slamming rock grooves, and infectious vocals are the hallmarks of the mighty VH - and we will capture it all for you. You'll hear many of their multitude of hits, and a couple deep cuts as always.

They are truly one of the all time greatest hard rock bands - but they've had their shake-ups through the years. We've tried to keep all our original members together, and in that spirit we will be playing ONLY the David Lee Roth years - 1972-1985 - no Hagar, no Cherone. We're not making any judgements about what came after, but it was not Van Halen to us.

Curt Morrison will be bringing it all night, along with a special guest or two, and Steve Frisbie will be joining us as well for what will be a bombastic, energetic, and exuberant night of ROCK with a pop flair that only Van Halen could really pull off while staying at the top of the hard rock pyramid.

So come on out and bang your head with us - taste the unbridled joy and energy that'll be exploding from the stage! It'll be a rock.....Eruption!

The U2 show is now officially SOLD OUT.

Thanks to all who got their tickets, we'll see you at the show!

Raise your hand if you realized they formed in 1976.  1976!  “BOY” came out 4 years later, and “I Will Follow” was eventually played by every high school rock band in America.  It was the 5th album, “THE JOSHUA TREE,” that made them the biggest band in the world in 1987.  The brilliant “ACHTUNG BABY” heralded a much needed reinvention in 1991, and somehow in the 2000’s U2 would still rank in the upper echelons of mainstream pop. 

All along, they have stayed together.  4 guys, who met when a 14 year old drummer put a flyer on his Dublin school’s notice board seeking musicians for a new band.  Their perseverance alone is remarkable.
