Today was one of my friend's birthday. So while my other friend and I were aimlessly walking around Walgreens in attempt to escape the heat before surprising my friend for her birthday, we walked through the card section. And as we were walking and talking, I saw a card with the Beatles on it and on the cover it said “I hear it's your birthday?” So I turn to my friend and say “Can I switch birthdays? Buy this for me!”

BRB, going to Walgreen’s to buy that card for myself …

I went to a concert tonight for the annual WC Handy Festival in Florence, Alabama. We saw a band called The Pine Hill Haints. They are a sort of Southern skiffle/rock group (mandolin, banjo, guitars, washtub bass, snare, saw, accordion, washboard…seriously, check them out on youtube). They played Come Go With Me, the first song Paul heard John play at the Woolton Village Fete. It was so cool! They also played a rousing rendition of one of my favorite Johnny Cash songs, The Long Black Veil.

How cool! The whole things sounds like a fun experience. apple01

I was at Borders, and had an armful of Beatle stuff. She Loves You started playing, and I got so happy. The other customers looked at me like I was crazy, dancing around with my arms loaded with books.

Maybe I'll see Rocky Raccoon there a-hard-days-night-paul-7

That is cool when you can take pictures of things written about in Rock & Roll songs or recreate little R&R moments. Joe had pictures taken of him in Hamburg that were similar to those taken by Astrid and Jurgen. Hopefully, you took some pics of the Black Hills – though if I recall, you may not be old enough to enter a saloon! But I suppose it would be OK to be in the next room at the hoedown.

I was once “standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona”. We weren't travelling to Winslow, just passing through. I had to stop though, just to say I did it. After all, I didn't know “if we would ever be here again.”

To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

I'm not sure whether this has ever been mentioned, but there's a conversation in the film 500 Days Of Summer that sounds something like this.

Tom: Are you being serious?
Summer: I'm being totally serious!
Tom: You're not joking around?
Summer: No I am not joking around. 
Tom: Octopus's Garden.
Summer: Yes, Octopus's Garden is the best Beatles song ever recorded.
Tom: Why don't you just say Piggies ?!
Summer: C'mon, I love Ringo Starr .
Tom: Nobody loves Ringo Starr !
Summer: That's what I love about him. 

Or words to that effect anyway. a-hard-days-night-ringo-10

Today I had a very sweet Beatles moment.

 

While going to work in the bus, feeling a bit sad because of some news, I was listening to music. The sky was dark and cloudy. Then, Here Comes The Sun starts in my cellphone, and all of sudden, the sun shows up behind a dark cloud. The images of George from the documentary trailer flashed in my mind and I could feel him. I know it was just a figment of my imagination, but it was nice. a-hard-days-night-george-5

Or was it? 

Either way, it made my day. :)10

If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.

Actually now I'm convinced I could feel *something*. I'm sure it wasn't him. I mean, George Harrison coming from the after life to check on his fans *laughs*

 

But it was something. You see it was when we set the Day of Death altars, we set a nice altar with flowers, food, candy, drinks, candles, scents, and many stuff to receive our beloved departed that have permisson for one day only to visit us, and sometimes when I'm just sitting by the altar I can feel my Mom, and actually we can smell the perfume she used to wear.

 

It was something like that. I swear to God that I felt someone sitting next to me.

 

Or maybe it was just a stalker who was staring at me in the back seat. a-hard-days-night-ringo-7

I hear you mith. There have been more than a few times when the following has happened to me.

Late on a hot summer night I'd be laying on the sofa listening to my iPod through headphones. All of a sudden, something “George” would play and a soft cool breeze would come in through the window washing over me.

I tell my wife, I swear it's George. a-hard-days-night-george-5

She just smiles and nods and reaches for my medication…neil-aspinall

I thought you hated shuffling your iPod.

And mith, don`t worry. I`ve had my fair share of seemingly strange moments like that.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 The medication we share Zig?? LOL!!

 

I do hate shuffling my ipod. But it died last week so I’m listening to music with my cellphone, and it can’t hold all my Beatles albums, so I have the “Beatle album” we did few weeks ago in the forum. I’m going to get a new mp3 player in October. a-hard-days-night-paul-1

A depressing moment here. (Little context: the Leader of the Canadian Opposition, Jack Layton, died Monday). As I read this line on-line (When Jack Layton’s casket leaves Parliament Hill momentarily, the Peace Tower carillon will ring O CanadaImagine  (by John Lennon ) and the Dominion March), I had my music on. Guess what song started just as I read that? Imagine .

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 I can totally relate. My best friend's dad is named Paul, and whenever someone mentions him in conversation, I automatically mental-scream McCARTNEY! It's embarrassing when I don't know who we're trying to talk about. a-hard-days-night-paul-10
