Post 4318 above is one of the most brilliant posts ever seen in this thread and I’ve seen all of them. apple01

Necko said
We all know that Ringo doesn’t answer fanmail anymore, but does he respond to tweets?

Yes, particularly if your bird can sing as well as tweet. 

 

Where has This Bird flown to?

No idea but would be nice if he would come back. Was nice having @thisbirdhasflown on the forum. 

 

Why did the Beatles instruct us to ‘Wait ‘ on ‘Rubber Soul ‘?

Because we had to wait till Rubber Soul came out to hear it, even though it had been in the can since Help

Some vegetarians see it as morally okay to eat bugs. Does Paul?

He doesn’t get bugged about it.

How did Maxwell get a silver hammer into the courtroom? Shouldn’t he have been handcuffed?

I’ll jump in with a question.

In the song Baby You’re A Rich Man , how much money is in the big, brown bag inside the zoo?

Hmm let’s see, there’s the catering for Magical Mystery Tour , The Fool On The Hill was a daytrip to France, flying all over Iceland can’t be cheap, the I Am The Walrus singers had to be paid off, George got stuck in Blue Jay Way and had to be copter’ed out, someone had to pay for the horses in Penny Lane , the hawaiian dancers in Hello Goodbye and the horrible things they did to that piano in the Strawberry Fields Forever clip. Your Mother Should Know All You Need Is Love but I reckon there has to be a couple of hundred thousand pounds in that bag at least.

One of the Beatles’ early, best-forgotten band names… ahdn_paul_01 

 

What was the Magical Mystery Tour ? Did Sgt Pepper ‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band ever do it live?

All the groups conquests in Hamburg. ahdn_george_01 In 1966 they all decided to get together and sue the Beatles for fathering children however there wasn’t enough space to fit them into the Albert Hall where the case was to be heard so it was dismissed. This was the original inspiration for the “Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall” line in ‘A Day In The Life ‘.

 

The Magical Mystery Tour was in the town where I was born before we left to live beneath waves. The Beatles did play it live during the 3 minutes of actual film plot but in amongst all the garbage and nonsense it made no sense so was cut.

 

Who was Billy Shears and why was he name-checked on a Beatles album?

The Beatles’ barber… he didn’t have much to do, as you can imagine, but they never forgot his kindness in putting up with their longhairedness. 

 

How many of the Beatles had guitars in 1958?

They all had guitars instead of arms and legs by 1958. They were fully transformed by then.

How many poppies did the nurse in Penny Lane sell? and what was the money for?

15,001 British dollars. She made the money to support her opium-selling habit.

 

Who was the inspiration for Mean Mister Mustard?
