The Beatles Project

The Event

Bob Sellers, longtime CFO of the Diocese of Birmingham, is retiring at the end of the year. Retirement parties aren't normal for the diocese, but  diocesan auditor, Ryan Yeager, is putting one together. Evidently, Bob is a big music fan, particularly of the Beatles, so Ryan asked if the POP band would do a Beatles show at the party for Bob.

Setlist

There are a lot of songs in the Main Setlist - all of them from various Beatles eras. Selections and order aren't completely settled until we've worked through the show.


If something in the Main Setlist doesn't work or just want to add / switch up, there are other pieces in the Beatles Other List and Other Artist List as ideas that could be pulled in. For now, though, focus on the Main Setlist.

The Show 

Here's the way it's designed to work:
