It’s been over a year in lockdown and it’s been strange to say the least. Things are starting to look a little brighter though, and everyday we’re getting closer to getting back on the road and performing for you all again!

In the meantime, we thought we could all have some fun with a new BB competition – we want to see your best ‘bootleg’ Beatles looks! Recreate your favourite photo of the Fabs with whatever you have around the house, and the best look-a-like creation will win a grand prize of a BB t-shirt of your choice and a BB goodie bag!

Our resident keyboard player and percussionist, Mr. Max Langley, has started us off with this recreation of these photographs of Paul McCartney from Richard Avedon’s August 1967 photoshoot, which resulted in his famous psychedelic, solarized images of the group. And doesn’t he look good?

We’ll be posting some photos of the Fabs over the next few days which might serve as inspiration. Now it’s time for you to get creative and do your own look-a-like photo (and remember – the devil is in the detail)!

You can enter your look-alike recreation via Facebook (@bootlegbeatles), Twitter or Instagram (@bootlegbeatlesofficial). Make sure you tag is in the image and use the hashtag #bootlegcompetition .

Entries close at 10:00am on 7th May so be sure to enter by then. All entries will be put into prize draw, one will be selected at random and that will be our look-alike competition and BB goodie bag winner – it could be you!
