The Beatles will be causing a crowd to come together tonight.
Reitz Union Board Entertainment will be hosting “Beatles Bonanza!” today at 8 p.m. at Orange & Brew.
It will feature The Shoddy Beatles, a local Beatles cover band, “The Beatles: Rock Band” competitions and giveaways.
The free event is co-sponsored by Entertainment Arts (EA) Games, who will raffle off two “The Beatles: Rock Band” games.
Bailey Parke, a RUB Entertainment Bands Committee co-director, said she was approached by the UF EA Games representative about doing an event featuring “The Beatles: Rock Band.”
Parke said she thinks the combination of the two elements will make this event one of RUB Entertainment’s most successful.
“For some reason, people love ‘Rock Band’ competitions, and people love The Shoddy Beatles,” Parke said. “So, it’s a perfect combination. It’s going to be big.”
