Sure is. Been to one as well some years ago. They even had the styles like the Beatles and all. Can't remember if I took pictures but I don't think so.  |

It was fun, there were lots of kids running about and people even brought lawn chairs and their dogs. At the end when they played Hey Jude all the crowd got up and sang and even the kids too. Hopefully these kids ask their kids to play some Beatles and become Beatles fan, the Beatles are a thousand times better than the crap on the radio

Been a Beatles fan since my cousin had all their music back then and I also collected some videos, movies and documentaries later on. Their music is timeless.

And most of these people were probably not even alive when the Beatles were in full swing. Shows their staying power.

That's the power of music for you. No matter what style or genre it can have an effect on anyone from young to old age of course.

The Beatles are like Elvis. Spanning the generations.

The Beatles are like Elvis. Spanning the generations. Elvis has gotten a bump in popularity because of the new Elvis biopic which is a big hit, many streaming services have reported an uptick in people streaming Elvis. Elvis had his issues, but he was much more talented as a singer and performer than many modern pop stars. He had a very successful singing career and a movie career, even if many of his movies sucked his early films were pretty good |

Not to forget the four Swedes with the same talent. ABBA is also for generations. |

While others, like Dishwalla (which had a Charmed episode based around them) have been forgotten.

I love the song Counting Blue Cars by Dishwalla, I think it was their only hit. The 90s had a lot of these one hit wonders:

In that case, the 80ies were not better with One Hit Wonders. Just ask the generation before me. |
