Choose Your Weapon: The Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
A hard day’s night where it’s only rock ’n' roll at the New Globe Theatre.
Overview
Forget all other music rivalries; since the 1960s, nothing has eclipsed The Beatles versus The Rolling Stones. One seemed like the friendly guys next door, the other like edgy bad boys - and while the iconic groups themselves largely played nice, their fans have argued for supremacy over the past five decades.
For the second instalment of their 'Choose Your Weapon' series, The New Globe wants to resolve the issue once and for all. To do so, four bands will showcase their takes on a catalogue of classics, on this hard day’s night where it’s only rock ’n' roll. All Hawkmoon and Drawn From Bees need is love to strut their stuff, though they might get by with a little help from their friends. Switchblade Suzie and Stone Majesty are certain to have sympathy for the devil as they start things up and paint it black.
Of course, the real winner is you, the audience, gifted with a night of legendary tunes interpreted by great local acts. Those in the Stones camp might want to arrive early for something extra special — infamous tour documentary Gimme Shelter screens at 6.30pm, before the bands start battling it out.
