Pete Best. After he got the boot the answer to the question of where he was going was always “nowhere, man” and so he became known as the Nowhere Man (the lyrics are clearly a reference; “please listen, you dont know what you’re missing”, “just see’s what he wants to see” are but two examples).

 

How many Beatles does it take to sack Pete Best?

Necko yapped 

What was the title of John Lennon ‘s first Christmas message to the fan club as a solo artist?

He was too comfortably settled bed-in to bestir himself to do a Christmas message, so instead he wrote Come And Get It and had Badfinger record it for him.

As many Beatles as it takes, for goodness’ sake. And if you can tell me, I’ll gladly listen. 

 

When did Paul McCartney meet the other Beatles?

1/2 12 in the afternoon for tea, cornflakes and toast. Paul liked to have breakfast with the others when on tour.

 

Why did John want Prudence to come out and play?

They were called The Bugsprays; featuring,  George Parasol, Ringo Stone and Paul McCharmley, alongside John Lemon (you got the spelling wrong).

Who gave poor George Harrison the black eye before his career even started?

George Parasol, who thought Harrison’s similar-sounding name was an insult and might damage his career. 

 

What jazz band covered Yesterday before it was even written?

The Art Ensemble of Chicago – since it didn’t exist yet, they felt free to retitle it “Get In Line”

Why, tell me why you do not treat me right?

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

No idea considering it never knows.

 

Inspired by the Anthology project Paul notoriously re-recorded 16 Beatles tracks for a new album. What was the name of the album and what message did the songs make when putting together the song titles?

The album title was These Are Canon Beatles Songs, I Swear! and the first letter of every track spelled out “I am not really dead.”

 

According to researchers at Harvard, what secret, hidden message was recently uncovered in the Beatles’ music and where/how was it found?
