Fri., Jan. 18, Rain—A Tribute to the Beatles

Three Stages at Folsom Lake College, 7:30 p.m., $39-$69

Rain is arguably the best Beatles cover band around. This stage group puts on a touring musical-theater production called Rain—A Tribute to the Beatles, which takes Beatles music and adds historical video, intricate costumes and elaborate set design. The band itself features a revolving cast of musicians playing the parts and performing the music of John, Paul, George and Ringo—but no matter what, their musicianship remains of a high caliber, and they precisely mimic Beatles recordings. In addition to the Friday show, you can catch performances on Saturday, January 19 (2 and 7:30 p.m.), and Sunday, January 20 (2 and 7 p.m.), as well. 10 College Parkway in Folsom, www.raintribute.com.
