    Hi Everyone -

    Here are 2 more live recordings from my band The Fab 8, which is an 8 member acoustic Beatles band. I hope you enjoy!

    The Night Before


    I'll Cry Instead


    A few more if you missed these:

    Nowhere Man


    In My Life


    Is anyone else planning on going to see the new Beatles movie "Eight Days a Week" which is being released today?

    Thanks for the kind comments, Rocker949.

    We finally posted our HD Video of "Nowhere Man" from the same gig when this was recorded, and I'm hoping to do the same with "In My Life" in the coming weeks.

    Here is the link to the "Nowhere Man" HD video post: Nixdad with The Fab 8 Acoustic Beatles Band, October 30, 2015 - w/HD Video

    Hey Freddy -
    We do not use any sheet music at all. Music stands or tablets are used either for set lists, lyrics or notes only (my tablet is just a set list.) Everything is learned by ear.
