At least 10.  4 to stand on the road with at least 6 alleged “5th Beatles” to shake the street.

 

What influence did the Lennon Sisters from the Lawrence Welk Show have on John’s career?

They highlighted all the steps on what to do to not be to be what they were when they weren’t what they came to be when they were what they weren’t. They also taught John how to brush his eyebrows.

Sir Stanley Higginson Snr. He prompted Ringo to play the hi-hat on the first half-verse instead of the second and the rest is forgotten.

 

Why was Norm always being taller than Shake in the Beatles film ‘A Knight’s Hard Daze’?

Whatever it was, it wasn’t his drums… they only loom large in his legend. a-hard-days-night-john-6

Just to spite him. In their previous adventure, A Hard Day’s Night , Shake was always being taller than Norm. Stilts were utilised. 

 

Which Beatle was offered the part of Han Solo in Star Wars, and did he turn it down?

John Lennon . The reaction from…

A. His fellow Beatles? 

Indifference from most of them. Although noted fifth Beatle Brian Epstein *ahem* enjoyed the cover. 

B. The press? 

They skwauked about it corrupting young girls, but they *ahem* enjoyed the cover while noone was looking. 

C. The fans? 

They *ahem* enjoyed the cover. 

D. The authorities? 

Indifference from most of them, although many of them were Beatles fans who *ahem* enjoyed the cover. 

E. The record companies? 

They tried their damndest to dissuade JWL from using the cover, but they secretly *ahem* enjoyed the cover while noone was looking. 

 

Which Beatle was the first one to issue a solo album and what was on that album?

John released a solo album back in ’57, but the Beatles weren’t yet famous or even a thing so it didn’t garner much attention. It included the song Yesterday which Paul later dreamt of and thought it was his own. No one told him otherwise because they’d all forgotten it– even John. 

 

What is the listener told to do in the song Don’t Bother Me

Implicitly, to go bother someone else.

Only £50. It was obscene for reasons too obscene for those under 75 years of old or literate to read.

The winning bidder was anonymous. Well, would you want to make it known you’d bought someone’s toilet seat. 

 

What where the Beatles first words when the world began?

‘GAH!!!’ – John 

‘And in the end, the love you take’ – Paul 

God , God , God !’ – George 

‘Is equal to the love you make. PEACENLUV’ – Ringo 

 

Name the Beatles film that involves Ringo accidentally wearing a ring of sacrifice and being chased round the world by a fictitious Indian cult.

John said he liked pepper steak but this got garbled by US fans who thought he liked Dr. Pepper. They were very quick to clear that one up.

What configuration of iguanas did John insist he require to tune up for recording sessions?

3 on the left, 1 on the right and 162 guarding all entry points so to ensure Pete Best never got in.

 

Why was the song ‘Her Majesty ‘ not included on early prints of the ‘Abbey Road ‘ sleeve?
