Rutles Highway Revisited

"It tells the band's Beatle-esque story with film clips and live performances of Innes' wickedly clever songs, among them 'Hold My Hand,' 'Cheese and Onions,' 'Piggy in the Middle' (hence the need for the porcine proboscis) and 'Ouch!'
"The music will be played not by 'real' Rutles Dirk McQuickly (Idle), Ron Nasty (Innes), Stig O'Hara (Fataar) and Barry Wom (Halsey), but by the Fab Four, a veteran Beatles tribute band.
"In short, impersonators saluting parodists."

Randy Lewis in the Los Angeles Times previews Rutlemania, a new stage extravaganza.
