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 […]
I chose red because I’m angry and large font for the same reason. I went online to get tickets. I tried for Washington DC, Madison Square Garden, and Newark, NJ. First I tried for the handicap seats and as usual all 3 said that there were no tickets available. Again, I guarantee that when you […]
Vladimir Putin. Let me explain. Yesterday afternoon, (Sunday) I was checking the Guide to see if anything interesting was on TV. I came across a show called “Facing Putin,” on National Geographic channel. It started with his background, how he came to power, and how he has stayed in power. It talked about his well […]
I was reading the paper a couple of weeks ago, (I don’t remember when or what paper), I saw a small blurb about Jerry Lee Lewis and Jimmy Page collaborating on Led Zeppelin’s song, “Rock’n Roll.” This I had to see for myself. Sure enough, there is a recording, (no video) of the song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VfSIUPHPG0. […]
This would have been John Lennon’s 82nd birthday. I can’t even imagine, (get it). Paul turned 80 in June and is still the same good natured, talented, still performing and touring, good looking, (for his age) man. Ringo, the oldest Beatle, turned 82 in July. He is still charismatic, he’s also performing and touring, and […]
