I have a feeling that we will prefer to go it alone, balls it up, get laughed at by the English, get annoyed, invade London after the rest of England splits from there, become insanely rich, squander it all on a huge celebration, reunite the UK in the resulting drunken stupor, wake with a massive hangover, wonder and curse why we are back married to the Ex.

You don’t get off the hook that easily, @meanmistermustard. I will get back to Scotland when I get to do a trip on my own again.

They might have planes, submarines, guns and a far bigger army but we have kilts, bagpipes and enough Irn Bru and whiskey to get so sozzled we are unbeatable.

Last night I stayed at my friend’s house and suddenly there was such a strong thunderstorm that the cellar of the house was flooded. The water in front of the door to the cellar was at least 30 centimetres high. Of course they hadn’t had a pump so we all had to remove the water with buckets for three hours with the rain pouring still and the lawn in front of the cellar door turning into mud in which you sank in to your ankles. 

Anyway, I think it was a great experience ( For the house’s owner it would have been better if it hadn’t happened, I agree but luckily no damage was done). We helped each other and no one ever complained, the work seemed to unite us and made us all equal. Additionally, I had Rain stuck in my head and was humming the melody while we were working because I wasn’t able to remember the exact lyrics. Then I went home and listened to Rain and I heard the line ‘When it starts to rain everything’s the same’ – that felt like a magical moment.

Edit: Oh no, I just read about the catastrophe in Colombia and noticed that my original post came to a very inappropriate time. Therefore I put it in spoilers to offend nobody. My heart goes out to all victims of the catastropheahdn_george_05

Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

Work is a pain as staff are endlessly grumbling about the idiotic messages management are leaving us, treating us like we are inept morons who would otherwise struggle to boil a kettle safely without scalding anyone within 200-yards. The latest was remember to turn the lights on after entering the building!! A negative environment.

Sounds like you need to try to find a different job in a more positive environment, mmm!

I had a woeful sleep last night, which probably means I’ll be annoying you even more than usual today.

Was it dreadful? Did you have a paper bag on your knee?

 

Anyways, I am currently figuring out the tab for Hey Bulldog (very quietly ) by myself while reading posts.

@SgtPeppersBulldog, I didn’t have a paper bag on my knee, but a paper tissue on my nose.

 

The tab you’re working on I presume is the main riff? If so, it is deceptively hard. Good luck!

I might be of assistance. You see, Hey Bulldog was recorded on February 11th, 1968 (the 5th anniversary of the majority of Please Please Me ‘s recording) during what I like to call the Yellow Submarine sessions, which is when The Beatles recorded Across The Universe , The Inner Light , Lady Madonna , and Hey Bulldog . Unlike most songs The Beatles recorded, we get to actually see how they recorded it, here’s a detailed instrumentation:

Backing Track:

John Lennon : Piano

Paul McCartney : Tambourine

George Harrison : Rhythm Guitar (1964 Gibson SG Standard)

Ringo Starr : Drums

Overdubs:

Paul McCartney : Bass Guitar (1964 Rickenbacker 4001S)

John Lennon : Rhythm Guitar (1965 Epiphone ES-230TD Casino)

John Lennon and Paul McCartney : Lead and Backing Vocals

George Harrison : Lead Guitar (1964 Gibson SG Standard)

For the solo, it’s safe to assume George played it because the guitar part is too hard for John to play and the guitar used was a Gibson SG, which is George’s guitar and it’s not like they constantly swapped around guitars and to top it all off, Geoff Emmerick himself claims this.

About the solo:

Here’s the pre solo bit:

B|0-0-3-0-5rb-0-6-7-0-0-3-0-7rb-6-5| x2

Here’s the first part:

You do a B5 chord on the B and G strings like so (xxx1112x)

Then you do this lick

G|——-4|
D|——4-|
A|2-4/6–|

B (xx444x) slide down to A (xx222x) then go back to B (xx444x) hammer on to E (xx645x)

repeat

Then do

E (xx645x) D (xx423x) A (xx222x) D (xx423x) A (xx222x)

Then do this:

e|—-4—-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12|
B|–3–3———————————|
G|4————————————–|

Then repeat previous step

and go

B (xx444x) x3

B (xx9877) x7

As for me, spring break ends tomorrow. I don’t want to go back to that dreadful place. a-hard-days-night-ringo-13 WeepyC is WeepySad. WeepingSadtlasCedars would be an accurate title at the moment.

Do they not even try to stop and think how condescending and infantile that sounds to employees? I’m semi-interested in management but bloody hell treat your employees with respect and they’ll treat you with respect.

I imagine there’s high turnover at your place because of crap management?

The Hole Got Fixed, I think your sleep problems are contagious.

I woke up at 4 after a horrible dream, then fell asleep and woke up again at 6 something, and finally fell asleep for a short time again and had to get up for school at 7:30.a-hard-days-night-ringo-14
