Mithveaen the only way to describe seeing McCartney is as such; ” oh That Magic Feeling”

As if it matters how a man falls down.'

Oh yes indeed. I was listening to Good evening New York City and I remembered the concert. It's a good way to relax when you have a lot of work and stress.a-hard-days-night-george-4

Hey guys and gals,

 

I've been lurking here for a few months and finally decided to take the plunge and register.  I've enjoyed this site tremendously (Thank you, Joe, for the tremendous amount of work and time you've obviously put into this great site).  I've always liked The Beatles but I haven't really had a true apprecation of them until I bought the remastered stereo set (I was five years old when they broke up).  Now I find myself listening to them about half of the time that I listen to music!  I'm trying to get my kids to listen to them, but they like the Across The Universe and Glee (Ugh!) versions better. I was lucky enough (and willing to buy the rather expensive tickets) to see The Beatles Love show in Las Vegas a few weeks ago.  WOW!  What a show.  Aside from the incredible Beatles music, George Martin is a genius.  Listening to the soundtrack is almost like discovering a new Beatles album.  Anyways, looking forward to chatting!

I'm sure they'll come around eventually. Did you take them to Love?

Welcome!  I'm a newbie here, too.  Aren't the remasters something else?!  Compared to the earlier CD releases (even the Dr. Ebbetts stuff), it's like a layer of murk has been removed; like seeing a painting that's had years of grime wiped off to restore the vividness of the colors.

 My wife and I were raised on 60s/70s music and now we've got a daughter who's a Beatles fan.  Well, she's a fan BUT she'll skip some songs on the CDs, like Rain and The Inner Light .  (She gets such a cavalier attitude from her mother, who brazenly skips nearly EVERY Ringo song……some people just don't get it, do they?? *smiles!*)  Still, my heart soars when I hear The Kid playing Beatles on the guitar or piano…..self-taught, like her ol' man.

George Martin is a genius, no doubt, and has always had my vote as “The Fifth Beatle.”  Glad the Love show was good: it looks pretty wild all right from what little I've seen of it…..

Anyway–welcome aboard!  a-hard-days-night-george-9

No, it was an anniversary trip for my wife and I.  Also it would be hard to afford 5 tickets to Love!  We spent over $200 just for 2 tickets.   It was the one show we went to on our stay.

Interestingly enough, I have always listened to 60s/70s music even though much of my teens was in the eighties, and that could be considered “my” decade.  Partly because I had older brothers and an older sister, no doubt.  But I've always felt that music from that era in general is better than what came after.  Although I like a lot of later and even current music as well.

Isn't it wonderful to hear your daughter singing Beatle songs!  No matter what problems I might have, when I hear my daughter singing and playing music–especially Beatles–my mind is carefree…..have a nice weekend!

Hello everyone.

 

My name is Joey and I'm almost 15 (will turn it on the 29th).  I have always liked The Beatles, but only got very into them around a year ago.  

 

I play the drums, and Ringo is definitely one of my favorite drummers to cover (in addition to Mitch Mitchell and John Bonham).  

 

My favorite Beatles songs are “Strawberry Fields Forever “, “I'm So Tired”, and “Here, There, and Everywhere”.  My favorite albums are Revolver and Abbey Road .

 

I found this website a few months back, and have always read the forum discussions, and the pages about songs, albums, etc.  I even used the multi-track Beatles songs Joe posted (much obliged!).

 

Anyway, you'll discover I'm a very nice guy, but I've been told I have a low tolerance for bull$hit (are we allowed to curse on here), so I apologize if I get a little aggressive once in a while.  

 

Finally, two-virgins.  

 

Yeah.

No one, I think, is in my tree; I mean, it must be high or low.

Hello, my name is Zachary. I am a 15 years old and I have been listening to The Beatles for as long as I can remember. My favourite song is Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite! mostly because I thought it was awesome when I was younger. My favourite Beatle is Ringo, though George is close behind. I hope I can fit into this amazing site.

Hello everyone.

I have been looking in on this forum for a few weeks now and absolutely love it!

Im a 36 year old female from Shrewsbury, England. I have liked the Beatles all my life. When the albums got digitally remastered i thought id grab one (Revolver ) after listening to it i fell in love! I soon built up my collection and now my kids are obsessed also. I have  16, 15 and 12 year old boys and a 10 year old daughter. My 15 year old is learning the guitar along with his cousin (bass- he is saving for a hofner) they want to start a band, thanks to the Beatles influence.Thats the thing with the Beatles, their music is inspirational!!

Our home is full of the beatles music, each person in their own room listening to which ever album or song is fav for that week. Myself in the kitchen cooking the tea blasting out my favs (the neighbours must love us !)

I dont have a favourite Beatle, but i feel more of an affinity with George.

I hope to get chatting with everyone soon, although i am a bit shy and not great at getting my point across. Im sure you will all be kind.

love Tammy xx

 

I've loved you from the moment I saw you……

       You looked at me that's all you had to do……

Welcome aboard, Tammy!  Isn't it great to have kids who are Beatle fans, too!  My 15 y.o. daughter's learning their songs on guitar and piano but we still sound the best when we're singing along to the discs….*laughs!*
