Their stunning authenticity coupled with their musical credibility has seen them perform at some of the world's best-known venues such as Wembley Stadium, the Royal Albert Hall, Knebworth, Glastonbury Festival and the Budokan Stadium in Tokyo, where The Beatles originally played. They also performed on "The Graham Norton Show" in London. The legendary English Record Producer/Arranger/Composer Sir George Martin, sometimes referred to as "the fifth Beatle", said: "I enjoyed their act enormously". THE BOOTLEG BEATLES have shared the stage with the likes of Oasis, Rod Stewart, Elton John, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Seal, Simple Minds and Bon Jovi, and they performed at Queen Elizabeth's Golden Jubilee celebration at Buckingham Palace. Formed from the West End cast of the Broadway musical "Beatlemania", THE BOOTLEG BEATLES at the 1994 Glastonbury Festival, Noel and Liam Gallagher of Oasis asked them to be the support act for their record-breaking 1995 Earl's Court Concerts, culminating with both bands sharing the stage for "I Am The Walrus".
