 36 years ago this month, the Beatles performed their last 'live' show upon the rooftop of their APPLE Corp. headquarters building, in London. They performed rough cuts of "Get Back", Don't Let Me Down", I've Got A Feeling", One After 909" and then an encore performance of "Get Back, even as the police arrived to pull the plug on them. 36 years!  Gawd, do I feel old. |

 Former Beatle bass player Paul McCartney, 64, wowed them yesterday at the Superbowl Half-time show. With a tight set that opened with the rousing "Drive My Car", Paul went on to churn out "Get Back", followed shortly thereafter by a pyrotechnics display version of the James Bond song, "Live And Let Die". By the time McCartney broke into the closing number, "Hey Jude", the 21st century version of candles (pinlight flashlights) lit up the surrounding audience and the stadium. "Will you still need me...when I'm 64?" Paul once sang. Judging by that half-time crowd's response, it was apparent that many still do. ![]() img.photobucket.com/albums/v291/Nefarioso/Superpaul.jpg [/img] |

I wish Paul would use his Rickenbacker 4001 bass instead of that Hoffner. I used to have one and it sucked!!, i hated that bass and got rid of it quick..

 I read the news today, oh boy...Twenty-five years ago tonight, John Lennon and Yoko Ono were riding home home from a recording session at the Record Plant, in New York City. When Lennon stepped out of his vehicle, he made it just as far as the foyer of the Dakota Aparment building. A coward, whose name does not deserve to be repeated here, stepped out of the dark and put four bullets into the ex-Beatle. The time was 10:50 PM. Lennon was pronounced dead at the St Lukes-Roosevelt Hospital a short time after his arrival. "...Nobody loves you, when you're down and out, Nobody sees you when you're upside down. Everyone's hollering about their own birthday, Everybody loves you, once you're six feet underground." John Lennon October 9, 1940/December 8, 1980 |

While visiting Copenhagen in 1985, my friend Kaj Andersen took me to see the Radisson SAS Royal Hotel where The Beatles stayed, while in town. Did you ever see the Beatles, Hans?

For anyone awake at 9am on Sunday mornings, tune into Q104.3 (live internet stream availible for those out of the NY/NJ/CT area) they have a great show called "Breakfast with the Beatles". Its an hour block of uninterrupted beatles songs. The host, Ken Dashow, usually has a great story to go with each song and will read listener emails about why they love the beatles. It really is a great hour show and worth a listen!

30 years ago tonight John Lennon was taken from us by a sniveling, dirtbag coward who should not even be alive today. Why is he yet alive?  |

Gawd, do I feel old.
