Now hear this, y’all…
Rumour has it the Wilbury brothers wuz plyin’ their trade one night in Tootsie’s Bar, Nashville, when they spotted George Harrison from The Beatles and his pal, Jeff Lynne outta the ELO in the crowd. Seems George & Jeff wuz lovin’ the show cuz they called up some friends to come along. Them friends wuz Roy Orbison, Tom Petty outta The Heartbreakers, and that Bobby Dylan himself.
After a night partyin’ n’ drinkin’, the boys allegedly decided they should all work together. Six months on, the Wilburys had heard nuthin’. Then it seems they heard their own music comin’ out of a record store. It wuz a new supergroup, callin’ ‘emselves The Traveling Wilburys.
Yes folks, it seems the Traveling
Wilburys became a tribute band to our home-spun originals!
After a lot of years, The Unravelling Wilburys decided to ‘reclaim’ their songs, puttin’ together a set of all the hits and the best stuff Dylan, Petty, Orbison, Lynne and Harrison could muster between ‘em. Then they headed for the UK, where the folks ain’t got much of a clue about Country music and took to ‘em right away. They’ve been here ever since.
With a perfect mix of superb
musicianship and comedy, the UNRAVELLING WILBURYS are brothers ‘Sticky’ Willy,
Walter, Thumper, Blind Melon and Honky Tonk, who tell their unique story on how
they became a tribute band. Now so
popular that they even got to be a question on that TV show “The Chase”, the
boys get to spend their time travelling all over the UK, from the Orkney
Islands to the Isle of Wight; from Penzance to Perth; from Southwold to South
Wales; getting rave reviews and packing out theatres along the way in towns
whose names they’ve never heard of and can’t pronounce.
The show features the best of the Wilbury albums (‘Handle With Care’; ‘The End of The Line’; ‘The Devil’s Been Busy’; ‘Tweeter & The Monkeyman’) and some of their supposedly thievin’ counterparts’ numbers like ‘Refugee’; ‘While my Guitar Gently Weeps’; ‘Like a Rollin Stone’; ‘Only the Lonely’ and ‘Mr. Blue Sky’. The act also contains the kind of comedy only a band spending far too many nights in Travelodge hotels could dream up.
So- turn off your hearing aid, put your Zimmer frame to one side and prepare for a great night out. It’s a journey you ain’t gonna forget in a hurry!

Synopsis:
Two of opera's most extraordinary artists return to The Met: Live in HD for Verdi's thrilling take on the immortal Shakespearean tale of the scheming couple determined to seize power at any cost. Following past triumphs in many of Verdi's signature baritone roles, Quinn Kelsey is the Scottish king haunted by the ghosts of his murderous ascent to the throne, opposite Lise Davidsen, the world's reigning dramatic soprano, as the power-mad Lady Macbeth, whose ruinous ambition damns them both. Met Music Director Yannick Nezet-Seguin takes the podium for a penetrating production by Louisa Proske, a brilliant young director making waves around the world. Rounding out the all-star cast are tenor Freddie De Tommaso as the heroic Macduff and bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green as Macbeth's friend-turned-victim Banquo. This production is part of the Met's award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to cinemas across the globe.
