When it comes to getting help from their friends, the WannaBeatles have a leg up in Bellefontaine.
Not only is the wife of a member of the Grammy-nominated tribute band a city native, but Bellefontaine’s mayor is a showman with a penchant for the Fab Four band from across the pond.
The band plays at the Holland Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Friday in a set that will include a performance of A Little Help from My Friends, featuring Mayor Ben Stahler, who has issued a proclamation that Friday is Beatles Day in Bellefontaine.
