The Kintyre Forum

The Mull of Kintyre Music Festival Committee are delighted to announce that the Bootleg Beatles will headline the festival this year. Taking a trip down the original long and winding road they can hardly wait to visit Campbeltown near the Mull of Kintyre, which is the title of the hit penned by Paul McCartney.

Saturday night in the Victoria Hall will provide a high point for festival revellers who will get the opportunity to dance and sing along with “the biggest tribute band in the world” according to Graham Norton whose show the band appeared on. The festival committee would like to encourage the audience to join in the occasion and dress up to suit the occasion.

Formed about 30 years ago from the cast of the West End Broadway musical ‘Beatlemania’ they were the first western rock group to tour the Soviet Union. Among many festival gigs including Glastonbury 1994 they have also played for the Queen. Liam and Noel Gallagher Oasis front men asked the Bootleg Beatles to support their Earls Court gig in 1995 and they have shared a bill with Rod Stewart, Elton John and David Bowie. The festival committee are sure that Saturday 20th August will be a night to remember for festival goers.
