“THE GREATEST CONCERT THAT NEVER WAS”—A LIVE TRIBUTE TO ELVIS & THE BEATLES COMING TO ARLINGTON’S REGENT THEATRE SATURDAY, 12/3 & SUNDAY 12/4, 2011

Starring Acclaimed Mahoney Brothers of “Long Live The Beatles” & “Juke Box Heroes Live” Fame

On Saturday, December 3 at 8pm and Sunday, December 4 at 2pm, The Mahoney Brothers will return to the historic Regent Theatre in Arlington, Massachusetts to stage, for the first time in New England, their new show “Elvis & The Beatles: The Greatest Concert That Never Was” as part of the Regent’s popular “Legends” series, presented by Royal Talent and Starbeams Productions.

One night in 1965, The Beatles met privately with Elvis Presley, one of their musical heroes, and since then music and pop culture fans have speculated on what it might have been like had the two biggest acts in the history of entertainment appeared together on the same stage.

“As huge fans of both of these legends, we wanted to give audiences a glimpse of what that might have been like,” says Tim Mahoney. “Elvis was the most exciting single performer in entertainment history and the Beatles are more popular today than when they dominated the record charts in the 1960s. We have performed tributes to over a dozen different legendary musical acts over the years, but Elvis and The Beatles never fail to steal the show. The reaction to the show has been nothing less than spectacular, and we are excited to be bringing it to the Regent which can accommodate a full production show while maintaining a very intimate feel to it.”

Says Mike Mahoney, “I have always thought Elvis had the best voice in rock and roll, and, as a live act, was second to none. I try to be respectful of his memory while doing my best to capture his sound and performing style. Although ‘Juke Box Heroes’ has given me a chance to give audiences a quick taste of Elvis in concert, this new show lets me stretch out and fully convey his on stage repertoire and persona.”

The Mahoney Brothers—the family of a thousand voices—are veterans of Broadway’s Beatlemania; stars of Dick Clark’s Golden Age of Television; and the original cast of Legends in Concert. They are multitalented entertainers who combine great musical ability and showmanship while exciting and enthralling audiences of all ages with their electrifying LIVE concert performances. A unique combination of musical versatility, intricate vocal harmonies, and precise staging has made The Mahoney Brothers one of today’s most highly respected and sought after acts in the entertainment business.

“Elvis & The Beatles: The Greatest Concert That Never Was “will be presented on Saturday, December 3 at 8pm and Sunday, December 4 at 2pm at the historic Regent Theatre, 7 Medford Street (off Mass Ave) in Arlington Center. Reserved seats are $22.50 to $29.50. Currently celebrating 95 years as “Arlington’s Show Place of Entertainment,” the Regent is MBTA and handicap accessible with free parking in the municipal lot across the street.
