'There are a lot of Beatles tribute bands from all over the world, and I've seen them all, but The best I've heard.'
'When they play in The Cavern, they perfectly recreate the atmosphere that the original Beatles produced. I could close my eyes and it would be like listening to The Beatles again.'
'The performance was brilliant. The next best thing to the original Beatles.'
'The most outstanding Beatles act I've seen....an immaculate performance.'
The sound of Liverpool could be heard across the centre of Pisa as 4,000 fans gave a rapturous welcome.
Before the evening was out, many Italians had promised to visit Liverpool, if only to see them play their fortnightly show at the Cavern Club.
Former Birkenhead man Frank Sheridan, who has lived in Pisa for 20 years, said: 'If anybody can attract more people to Liverpool, those guys can. They were brilliant.'
'Steven Howard sang with that familiar high pitched lilt of "McCartney", Dave Howard performed a beautiful version of George Harrison's classic ballad Something, and even drummer Brian Ambrose's rendition of With A Little Help From My Friends possessed that "Starr" charm.
'But it was the sense of nostalgia that the band was capable of evoking that really endeared it to the audience with encores Hey Jude and Twist and Shout almost putting a tear in the eye.'
'Do They sound better than the real thing, live?
'All I know is I shivered some when they started the intro last night - a night full of memories at a sold out event.
'In the early Beatles songs which opened the concert the band is brilliant. The instruments sounded exactly as they should and the voices were in perfect harmony.
'Even the chat between 'John' and 'Paul' was perfect.
'All the riffs, every movement every guitar solo and every harmony was perfection.
'Today They could call themselves The 'Perfect' Beatles!
'They connected with the audience as we were invited on a fascinating two hour journey through a piece of pop history by a band which is something more than other tribute bands.
'After a short break they started off again in 1967 - here the music changes mood. The band handled this so well and it all made for an unforgettable night.
'So we had heard it all before and do we really want to hear it again and again and again? If it's by This band then the answer is Yeah Yeah Yeah!'
