meanmistermustard said 

Brian Epstein had his first cup of tea.

 

Why did Brian Epstein go down into the Cavern Club on the 9th November 1961?   

 

He lost his glasses and he thought they might be there. 

 

Did the Beatles really avoid releasing singles on albums? 

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

Yes. They wanted to keep the singles for themselves (shh, don’t tell the wives and girlfriends…)

 

Who’s gonna lose that girl?

What happened to Billy Shears after he split from singing with Sgt. Pepper ‘s band and lost his friends he got by with?

He was in the camp that wanted to keep Pluto as a planet. Number 9 was their rallying cry.

Blood, after you get a cut from opening up a brand-new Beatles record too hastily. 

 

Who gave Ringo his nickname, and what was it?

His nickname was Nick, and it was given to him by this man

one of his jazz heroes, who liked the name “Nick” so much that he named everyone “Nick”, which is how the term “nickname” originated.

Paul recovered from his marijuana high.  He then said “Oops.  Now I got to get you out of my life”.

Why didn’t the Beatles ever collaborate with the Dave Clark Five?

Because 4+5=9 and Paul was just sick and tired of all that “number nine” rubbish that John was spewing at him. a-hard-days-night-paul-3

Why did the Beatles never collaborate with Pink Floyd? a-hard-days-night-paul-10

a) Because if they had, I’d have died of a fabosity overdose and wouldn’t be here to tell of it. beatlemaniacs_02_gif x 100,000

b) Because if they had, the amalgamated awesomeness of those eight (or #9, #9, #9, #9) human beings on the same tape-space creating together would have cause the entire planet to implode. 

 

Why didn’t Paul and Linda go vegan?

You have to take a Yellow Submarine from Liverpool, turn right at Greenland, go down 300 feet, make your way through the Seas of Monsters and Time, and then once you reach the Sea Of Holes it’ll be in the third hole from the left.

The plea to just let it be. 

 

How many any hours did it take for the Beatles to record Sgt Pepper ?

What did the Beatles eat for lunch fifty years ago today?

It was summer. I’m sure they had a finger pie along with their fish and chips.

It’s a jar of jam that someone put a cigarette out in. What this has to do with the Beatles I don’t know. 

 

Elsewhere on the forum, there is a thread about the different guitars that George used on each song. What kazoos did Paul McCartney use on each song?

He didn’t – it was a typo. He actually played Gazoo.

Which Beatle was the first to visit Russia and why did he visit?

Ringo went to Russia (with love) to visit his distant Russian cousin Ivan Ivanov Ivanovich. On hitchhiking back to England, he met some Ukraine girls who really knocked him out. a-hard-days-night-ringo-10

 

What is the name of Randolph Peter Best’s official website?
