Band tees?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles merchandise | 16 Comments »

What is your opinion of people who wear/purchase band merchandise of bands that they don’t listen to? This especially applies to people who purchase "vintage band tees" of bands such as the Ramones, Beatles, Doors, AC/DC, etc. Does is bother you, as a fan, that they are soiling the band’s name for the sake of looking retro and cool or do you simply not care?
*it bother you

Ugh, yes it REALLY bothers me.
Ok, I’ve been a fan of like The Beatles, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin..ALL of them since I was like 4, I’m now 15. And lately everybody is pretending to like them all wearing their shirts and everything.

Actually today I had like a break down about this. I went into hot topic to buy a rock tee, and it reminded me well this boy had a Led Zeppelin at my school and he was like ‘Yeah, my favorite member is John Lennon.’
and I was like ‘what the heck-’
And also this girl was talking about Nirvana and shes like ‘Yeah I like them.’ and then some kid had a shirt with a picture of Kurt Kobain and she pointed at it and asked me if the guy was Jimi Hendrix.

ugh, its annoying. =/

Ideas for a Beatles lyric tattoo with 10 words or less?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles lyrics | 10 Comments »

I really want a beatles tattoo, but i need some help finding some really nice lyrics. John is my favourite Beatle, so preferably i’d like the lyrics to be his. suggestions please!

Nothing’s gonna change my world

All you need is love

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

Some kind of happiness is measure out in miles

You can talk to me

Take it easy

Strawberry fields… Nothing is real

From his solo years:

All we are saying is give peace a chance

Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine all the people living life in peace

Imagine all the people sharing all the world

Power to the people

War is over if you want it

War is over now
(you could ALMOST combine those last two, but that takes you up to 11…)

On a slightly more silly note:

Except for me and my monkey
(That one, maybe you could even have a small picture of a monkey beneath it…)

This-ism, that-ism, ism ism

I am the walrus

That’s all I can come up with off the top of my head…

What is your favorite Beatles album?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles discography | 11 Comments »

I recently bought "The Beatles Stereo Box Set" and have been exploring their discography over the past few days. Of the thirteen original albums that the Fab Four released, which is your favorite? Why?

i like them all

I want to go through most if not all of the Beatles’ albums, Definitely covering the important ones.?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles albums | 3 Comments »

I want to go through most if not all of the Beatles’ albums, Definitely covering all the important ones. Now I know most of of their hits and everything. Question is, where do I begin? And in what order should I go through the Beatles’ catalog?

Thanks and appreciate the help.

Also, if somebody can do the same thing with Pearl Jam while you are at it, even better. I know, slightly different type of music.
Had beatles 1, 62-66 and 67-70

alright well, seeing as you already know most of the hits Beatles 1s is pretty well covered, but still deserves to get looked at if you dont already have it. There isent really a way to go wrong with buying beatles albums but you should probably start with the really monumental ones, Abbey road would be a good place to start seeing as its one of the best albums ever recorded.

Other then that, you can do some of their earlier stuff like hard days night or revolver which are both great.

as for pearl jam, i dont really know them that well, i have the album "ten" its pretty good, aside from that i dont really know

The Beatles/John Lennon fans, will you be seeing this movie?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles john lennon | 3 Comments »

It’s called Chapter 27 and it’s about the murder of John Lennon. It stars Jared Leto and Lindsay Lohan. So…will you be seeing it?

It looks interesting, but unfortunately it’s only coming to theaters in New York, so it looks as if I won’t be seeing it anytime soon.

Beatles Anthology / Beatles RockBand…?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles anthology | 3 Comments »

There was a 3 or 4 part show on VH1 Classic for the past few weeks about the Beatles and all their albums and experiences and whatnot. Has anyone else been watching that?

BQ: What did you think of the show if you saw it? I thought it was fantastic!
MQ: Favorite Beatles song?
MQ2: If you could reunite the Beatles for ONE performance of ONE song, which one would you choose (and why–if you’d like to share that :] )

BQ: How do you feel about the Beatles Rock Band. Pros and Cons in your opinion? Thanks!

have a great day everyone!

BQ: It was fantaboulous!!!

MQ: Hold Me Tight – The Beatles

MQ2: I’m Down, Shea Stadium style. They looked so fun during that song.

BQ: Pros: Good graphics and its The Beatles!!! Cons: Posers…

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under beatles memorabilia | 7 Comments »

I was casually looking on eBay, ya know…
Then, before I know it, I’m bidding on 3 Beatles necklaces, Beatles stamps, and a Beatles A Hard Day’s Night movie ticket… All coming out to about $30.00…
So, am i a Beatles addict… or eBay?

***Anyway, pick a random song about anything. If you’ve heard another person’s song, thumbs up, if you haven’t, thumbs down.
True… I mean, i can always love The Beatles, but once i run out of money, how am i gonna eBay?
I love Ever Present Past!
Macca still has it!
Beatles Fan- Nice songs! I love Macca on I’m Down!

How much do Beatles photographs go for?

Posted by admin on December 26th, 2009 and filed under the beatles | 6 Comments »

I have aquired some Beatles photos, they were printed off the origanal negatives 20 years ago, but I don’t have the negs. They are not posed photos, from some sort of music video behind the scenes. And I have two photos of John Lennon on his own in a house, & John Lennon with Cynthia Lennon in a house.

Take them to an auction house for an estimate, condition is everything as is provenance (when and where were they taken, who took them and why?) these details can increase the value.
