A few weeks ago we went to see Paul McCartney’s photo exhibit covering the years of 1963/1964, titled, “Eyes of the Storm.” This is a fairly new exhibit, the first showing was in London. I am so fortunate that the next showing, (first in the US), would be at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, VA. […]
I did it! I bought tickets to see The Rolling Stones! I went on StubHub and looked at all kinds of seats. I was willing to pay a grand for 2 tickets. I think the seats are ok. They are not in the nosebleed section. They are in the level above the floor in the […]
This week in February 1964 The Beatles came to America! I don’t remember their arrival at Kennedy Airport, (only in pictures) but I do remember them on The Ed Sullivan Show. I was 6 years old at the time and even though I can’t remember some things, I do have an exact memory of seeing […]
During the week I was suffering from trigeminal neuralgia, my busy mind did came up with random thoughts, as usual. One of these thoughts was, “what was The Beatles first album, was it “Meet the Beatles?” I felt there was one released before “Meet the Beatles.” Anyway, the next day I was reading the paper, […]
I had forgotton about the yearly Beatlefest. It had crossed my mind occasionally, but I did nothing about looking it up. I used to to get the mailings yearly telling you the locations and agenda, and also selling Beatle memorabilia and new products. Anyway, these mailngs stopped a few years ago and as I just […]
I have to say that this is very odd for me. I like Willie Nelson, don’t own a single record, I don’t listen to him on my own BUT, as I said, I do like him, I admire him, I love his song writing and the crowd he welcomes into is life. His fans and […]
Here we go again. The Stones are once again going on tour in the US. As an AARP member I was able to get in on the presale. That morning I went online and the site was so busy it crashed. I tried again later in the afternoon. I was looking for tickets at Met […]
The year is 2023. Who would have ever predicted that The Beatles and The Rolling Stones would both be on Billboard’s Top Hits List! Again, at the same, both bands, as always deserving This week a new single was released by The Beatles. A song, “Now and Then,” recorded by John Lennon had been given […]
I was watching country music’s 50th anniversary last week and an artist called Jelly Roll came on and performed a song that really resonated with me and I had to write it down. The lyric is: “I only talk to God when I need a favor, so who the hell am I to expect a […]
When I lived in New York I listened to Q104.3 FM. I got to be familiar with the different DJ’s and always listened to the “12:00 Beatle Block,” with Scot Muni, (who has long since passed away). They continue with this Beatle Block to this day. Anyway, thanks to satellite radio, I can still listen […]
