He liked the rhyming couplet on The End . It reminded him of Shakespeare.

Based on the information given in the song Taxman , what percentage of George’s money was taken in taxes?

Lots and lots and lots and lots.

Aieeeee Is there anything worse than this?

Ten shillings. Fortunately Paul had a ten-bob note ready up his nose. The shopkeeper was somewhat wary about taking it once he saw where it’d been, but he wanted to make a living and please the illustrious James Paul McCartney , so he took the money. 

…With tongs.

According to Little Girl, yes, because she actually likes it. No accounting for tastes. ahdn_paul_01

The actual real answer is ninety-five per cent– one for you, nineteen for me.

Yes. Much. Play below for example. Go on. I dare you. See how far you get before sticking your head in the toaster.

 

15 shillings and 7 pence. He shoved two pencils up his nose, stuck underpants on his head and pretended to be mad but it didnt work. This was the inspiration of the ‘Blackadder Goes Forth’ scene in the episode ‘Goodbyeee’.

Oh yeah. 

Which concert did all four Beatles attend on the 9th April 1970 where it was during the mid-session interval that Paul gave each of them an early copy of the Daily Mirror?

Is that a Beatles-related question? If not I will make the answer so– Because they all fall through the four thousand holes. 

 

How many singles did the Beatles release?

It was a very subtle reference.

They’re too busy listening to Beatles records.

Why is everyone suddenly leaving after Paul says hello?

He was keeping Yoko a secret from Cynthia, who came along, hoping to surprise her with his fabulous new friend on her (Cyn’s) birthday. 

 

Who cuts Paul’s hair and why did s/he do such a terrible job in the early seventies?

Because while his sense of time is impeccable, his pitch is always off. 

 

When and why did George take up slide guitar?

Never since the slide guitar reminded him too much of a traumatic slip and slide incident.

 

Why do the Beatles fans on this forum flock to this game so much?
