John, Paul, George and Ringo graced the stage at Main Street Live on Friday night, or at least their likenesses, as Beatles tribute band Rubber Soul performed another entertaining set of tuneful songs from the Fab Four.Like last year, the crowd was huge, close to 2,000, besting the 1,800 last year, and the reaction was enthusiastic. No doubt about it, the band was hot — and so was the weather. However, the threat of rain was just that, and the showers held off until the show was over at around 9:15 p.m. after a couple of encores.The Beatles repertoire was well represented, with early career tunes like “Please Please Me,” and “I Saw Her Standing There,” on up to late ’60s classics like “Yellow Submarine,” and even a performance of “Helter Skelter” as one of their encores.There are lots of great things one could say about Rubber Soul’s show.
