The Beatles

Yes he was. He was just making a comeback after a few years being a house husband when he was shot.

Comeback was inspired by Coming Up by Macca apparently. He thought it was great and it also annoyed the shit out of him that Macca had written something he really liked.

I think he'd have made some brilliant tracks somewhere down the line, even though he wouldn't have shelled out songs like Paul (who has basically produced more songs every year than Madonna has produced stolen poor children and generally acted the f**king skanky bitch she always has been).

Corrected for you.

he could be doing shows with Paul.... :P

Yeah, and Ringo.

On a side note, the last time John and Paul really hung out was about 1976 I think, when Lorne Michaels made an offer on Saturday Night Live to get the Beatles back together. He offered them $3000 live on air. Paul was in the Dakota building with Lennon at the time and were watching it on tv. They both decided to go down to the studio there and then, they got up, had their coats on and were on the way and decided not to at the last moment. Imagine how cool that would’ve been! :P

Good correction. Your edit was much better. Cheers.

I'm convinced John and Paul would have buried the hatchet and made another record together. Ah well - so many 'what ifs' ruined by some stupid fat c**t with serious issues and a gun. :P

They're a bit too populist for my taste :P

They only really play 1 and thats about it, which is good, but I like less common stuff. Saw them at Glastonbury over going to see the Who, never regretted it.

They wouldn't be my choice really, I'm not even a massive Beatles fan to be fair. But a free gig with friends sounds like a great Christmas present to me :P

One of my most favourite Beatles songs probably isn't that well known, I think it's called Her Majesty, It's a really short song (I think from Abbey Road) and it has very little instrumentation, but it's short and sweet :P The lyrics are as follows:

Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl

But she doesn't have a lot to say

Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl

But she changes from day to day

I want to tell her that I love her a lot

But I gotta get a bellyful of wine

Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl

Someday I'm going to make her mine, oh yeah

Someday I'm going to make her mine

    • Interesting to read. It's mostly why we stopped going a few years back even though it's the nearest big festival to home. The post-exams timing and location makes it a rites of passage first festival for people in a big area. Understandably that leads to a bit of giddiness. Think lineup would need to be a lot more my cup of tea to be enticed back. Friends who are there are having a good time tho and no rain is a good thing for up there.
    • I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.
