Necko whispered 
Which Beatles song was inspired by which Beethoven piece played backwards? 

The Day Tripper riff was inspired by that annoyingly catchy Ode To Joy theme played backwards, which Lennon heard whilst lying in bed and floating upstream; the notes somehow made their way through the colours of his dreams and out onto his guitar and into the song.

It just gives you time to lecture your rapt audience on how this was truly the band’s tour de force and their last hurrah, and to impress upon them the full sense of the incredible journey which they have just finished, before watching them jump half a foot into the air as that chord comes crashing down Out Of The Blue

 

Which Beatles’ song was purportedly about LSD, and what reason was given?

Lucy In The Sky With Drugs. Lots of drugs. You don’t need a reason for drugs, said Dr Robert Pepper as he shapechanged from Mr Kite into Henry The Horse and a Walrus octopus through a Glass Onion wow ok let’s sit down. stuart-sutcliffe

Oh I almost forgot. What did the pretty nurse say when you told her she was in a song?

They came at the same time, but the Elementary Penguin– who was like Ringo, only a bassist penguin, and also Necko– was more accomplished.

His voice was too good, it drowned out all the other lads. Also the stars had lined up for Paul to be one of the Beatles, and the stars recognised that it wouldn’t go the way it was supposed to if he got into the choir, so the stars kept him out of it. 

 

How many Beatles went

ciggies, LSD, marijuana, one of Mal’s belts, and one of Ringo’s rings (he’d been looking for it since that time because he didn’t know it was placed in the capsule)

Paul won an essay contest when he was 10 years old. What was the topic he wrote about?

He, being a young didgeridoo player at the time, wrote about how guitar groups were on their way out. 

 

What item bought in an antique store inspired the song Being For The Benefit Of Mister Kite!?
