Great stuff. It must be very satisfying to be able to play these songs with a full orchestra behind you (Provided they can play in tune, LOL).

How do you go about getting the arrangements for these songs to the orchestra(s)? Is there actually full sheet music available for Beatles songs (I've only seen fake books for guitar, etc), or did someone in your band (or the conductor) have to write everything out?

BIG props to AustinLeftyBass. It is really cool to see a great cover of "I am the Walrus".... I love the Beatles music and this is a very well done cover. Congrats!

Awesome gig! I'll bet the members of the orchestra had a great time learning their parts, and learning more about The Beatles. I recall in your reply to The Strangers video I posted the other day, you thought at first the band name was The Stranglers - on the video page for The Walrus there was a video for another band with a similar name, the Stragglers!

Great videos by the way, you guys have all of the instruments, as well as singing, to do a wonderful job on The Beatles songs... Kudos!
