The Beatles

Again, you fail to understand the humour.

That may have something to do with it not being funny?

You don't understand the reference then.

[Cardboard Box City]

You don't understand the reference then.

Which was?

[-pogo-]

Which was?

I was refering to myself as superior, then realised it was similiar to a Beatles song, and inserted the Beatles song into my sentence.

You had to be there.

And I called myself 'the Egg Man'. Which is from the same song...

You just copied my joke.

I think the word 'durrrrrrr' is needed here...

I'm just sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun, thinking later I might go and stand in the English rain... I imagine you wont have a clue as to what song thats from going on previous posts...

[Wooderson]

slightly, but only slightly, off topic

after some spirited words with wooderson in the sir thumbsalot thread in the glastonbury forum, i decided to revisit some of his post-beatles work! the vast majority of it is still pish IMO but it did lead me to relisten to a lot of all of their post beatles work (barring the ringo stuff - im a geek, not a masochist) and to 're-discover' the best post beatles solo album 'all things must pass'

im loving that record all over again at the moment

i miss you george!

Picked up The Fireman's last record (Macca, innit) and I reckon its his best since Band on the Run or Ram.

I thought "Flaming Pie" was gonna be the man's last half-decent record. But have a listen to this! This is the opener, clearly Pauly taking the handbrake off bout his ex. Tune is BADASS.

Sir Paul McCartney has been named songwriter of the year at The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) Awards in London.

Former Beatle Sir Paul was recognised for the songs All You Need Is Love, Come Together and Hello Goodbye.

I don't understand

Not only were the three songs not written this year, two of them were written by John.

Paul McCartney. Proud to have been a bit like Ernie Wise without Eric Morecombe since 1970.

The London show will be gone in the click of a finger.

Rumours that it's the Man's last gig.

Dublin is a Sunday night bruv.

Only gig at a weekend on the tour + only Paul's 2nd ever solo Dublin gig = überpissup2009

Couple jars with me and The Nal beforehand/after if youre keen.

[When Jokers Attack]

Seriously considering London. Need to see The Man!

How much everybody reckon tickets will be?

60-75 quid?

[Peevis]

His voice has gone. Went about a decade ago in fact.

Save your seventy quid, sit at home and listen to the beatles.

Much better imho...

I disagree. If you havent seen Paul he's still able to cut it.

Glasto was 5 years ago and "Blackbird" sounded fine to my ears.

Glasto was 4 years ago and "Blackbird" sounded fine to my ears.

I have seen him a few times. Which is why I said what I said, see!

[-pogo-]

It's not even the real Paul McCartney! Paul's dead man.

When did you see him play?

Flight is only 40 mins max. The O2 is the smallest venue on this tour from Paul. Not a bad little venue mate. I'm deffo going.
