A quick off topic note: Thank you for contributing to the thread, @Dark Overlord (I can let you begin a new story/round if you want once this one has finished 
) but I personally think you might have derailed the current story a bit with the last sentence. If you have read page 1, The Beatles and others set out to save Pattie, who had been kidnapped by the Blue Meanies, and I doubt they would leave her behind just like that!
As for everybody else, don’t be afraid to join in (bit boring with just two of us writing all the posts) although I would encourage to put the thread to rest at times because I don’t want what happened to the Heal/Hurt games happen to this thread.

: Is it that you’re not a big fan of my Two Virgins album, it’s ok, it was all Yoko’s idea anyways.
: No, I’m in love with another man, here’s a picture of him.
: You’ve been in love with me, I already knew that.
: No George, I’ve been having an affair with your friend Eric. I think he’s a better guitarist than you and when he writes love songs about me, they don’t include the words I don’t know.
: This is total garbage, this isn’t why George and Pattie broke up, it was a slow and drawn out process.
: Who said anything about breaking up, why can’t we be in a 3 way relationship.
: Good point there George, All You Need Is Love after all.
: Oh, Ringo.

Haha! Like that ending ! It’s your turn to begin a story.
New rule: Person who ends the last story gets to begin a new one.(Except me, because I created this whole game.) And the person who began the story cannot end it.
Also, changed the title to apply with this.

Offline Here’s my new story, it’s about The Beatles recording various songs, if everyone follows my lead, each post could be a song being recorded.
Episode 1:
It’s a sunny afternoon and The Beatles return Abbey Road to record a new song after lunch.
: Thanks for the fish and chips Mal.
: No problem Paul, I love to do this job.
: Alright lads, into the studio.
all enter the studio.
: So I think was thinking, remember that song we were trying to record last night called Nowhere Man , I say we have another go at it, this time with 2 acoustic guitars, bass, and drums.
: Sounds like a nice idea John, I’ll get out my Rickenbacker.
: Ok then, let’s rehearse. George, you and me are going to put these capos on the 2nd fret of our Gibson acoustic guitars.
The Beatles spend a bit of time rehearsing the song until they’re satisfied with the results.
: Are you sure you want me to play acoustic guitar with you, it seems weird that both of us are playing the same exact thing.
: Tell you what, during the chorus, while I strum a F#m, you could initially strum that but then switch to an F#m7.
George agrees and they record the backing track.
Now they decide to record the vocals.
: He’s a real Nowhere Man , sitting in his nowhere land, making all his nowhere plans for nobody…
: That was great. Mal, get us a cup of tea and some toast with strawberry jam.
: Sure thing lads.
Mal gets everybody a cup of tea and some toast with strawberry jam and while they’re having their snack, George has an idea.
: I was thinking, this song could use some really bright electric guitars, I was thinking of a very simple 5 note riff for the end of each verses that I can play using my sonic blue Fender Stratocaster.
George then proceeds to play the riff for everybody on his Fender Stratocaster.
: That’s a great idea, you think you can also add something extra for the outro as well at the end of each chorus besides the first.
George agrees and he records the 5 note descending riff at the end of each verse, as well as that B note strum at the end of each chorus and that outro.
: Now all that’s left is the solo. I think that we should record it in unison and since I think the Strat should be the only electric guitar we use in this song, do you have your Strat on you John, I want to get a really bright and treble-y guitar tone.
: Sounds good to me, let’s go,
They record the solo together on their Fender Strats in unison.
: What are you boys thinking about recording next.
: Hopefully one of my songs.
If you're reading this, you are looking for something to do.

: Hey, George! Have you seen the lads?
: No. What’s the matter?

They certainly can, Brian.
I’ve got an idea: How about we invite all the Applescruffs in front of the studio to eat with us? It’s such a beautiful day, we should all celebrate it!

SgtPeppersBulldogNot once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

: Oh Yoko!
: Chill out, suckas! I’m not gonna eat those nasty biscuits. I’ve got bigger fish to fry. Gather ’round for some big news, Apple scruffs.
: ?!??!!?
: Everyone All Together Now ? All right, here’s the deal: John says I am a Beatle now. Yup, that’s right; I’m in the band.
: Time for me to book that return trip to Sardinia.
: In fact, since John is too strung out to contribute, I will just be making decisions for the two of us. Coincidentally, that is one of my first changes. Two Of Us is now going to be called Three Of Us. It is about the special psychic energy between Paul, John, and I. I have recorded some new vocal shrieks and scrubbed George’s guitar contribution.

: Well that was just smashing, Yoko and, umm, you other ones. Boys and Girl, you have your first Number One After 909 single!

: Moving on, given the new direction that the band is taking, I was wondering if young Giles might join the group too.
: No way, orchestra boy!! We’ve been waiting far too long for our big opportunity to allow you and Yoko to ruin it. We deserve to be the newest Beatles!
: Mal, you just shut it and keep banging that anvil! Tomorrow I’m bringing that delusional Jesus fellow I found at my gate to keep Yoko occupied. Four of us in the band is bad enough! Neil, quit loafing and bring me a smoke.
A knock on the studio door, and the doorknob turns …
: Hey dudes, long time no see! I heard you don’t have a drummer anymore, and I’m available, so … Oh, hey Neil! Mom was wondering where you’ve been lately. Did you know I have a kid brother now?
: 
: Pete, it’s just that, you know, the girls want me now, and if you came back it would make things complicated and I just, see it’s complicated now and if we can get it simpler and then complicate where it needs complications …

Never done this before, and unsure of the etiquette; so I’ll just be bold and start one, and if nobody likes it it’ll die on its own. And then someone else can either start a new one or continue from 2017, whatever.
Hey fellows, I’m ready for recording my first solo album, but I haven’t got a band. Hint hint!
