I’d pay to wack Heather’s head!

Oops, you mean with jelly babies. Never mind.

PM me. a-hard-days-night-ringo-6a-hard-days-night-george-10 It’s obvious after what she did to our Paul that she doesn’t have a brain or a heart so what else can we aim for? She’s the Scarecrow and the Tin Man in one.

Considering how much bad press they get we could have one of those wack-a-mole machines were instead of moles Yoko and Heather heads pop up.

Brilliant! The Interactive Exhibit Wing is taking shape nicely. How about the Helter Skelter for an addition?

^^ Ooooooooo. apple01apple01apple01

Would we make the polythene bag exhibit interactive?

A non-interactive exhibit item: Martha’s collar.

Wouldn’t we want the one modelled for The Beatles Illustrated Lyrics? Or a little too adult?

^^ I guess we could have a room marked “XXX ADULTS ONLY”

For the cafe: Instead of MoonPies,9k=Image Enlarger

we could have Mr. Moonlight Pies. I still think they have to have some marshmallow component to them for the Rocking Horse people. Oooo, or perhaps we can cut a deal with the MoonPie executives to have a specialty line of their products to sell that have our special name.

Oooo..I love Moonpies.

I could just collect a bunch during Mardi Gras or go to one of the local stores around that time.

We could have the Two Virgins exhibit in there and it could be interactive as well. Even add in the re-enactment of the Stripper scene from MMT. two-virginsa-hard-days-night-ringo-6a-hard-days-night-ringo-14a-hard-days-night-paul-3

 

We could have Honey Pies and Wild Honey Pies in the cafe and the chocolates mentioned in Savoy Truffle . Oh and some toast but folks have to eat their crusts like George always did.ahdn_george_06

The polythene bags interactive exhibit probably should be in the XXX room.

Since Pam looks like a man and Loretta thought she was a woman, but she was another man. Maybe we should have a Drag Queen competition.

Yes, but Desmond Jones is a shoo-in to win it!

I want to see as much Beatles stuff in a museum as possible. They should purchase Strawberry Field and convert it into a Louvre-sized facility. And if they can’t, then Tittenhurst would do.

The following people thank Lennonista for this post:

I was thinking too literally about a “Museum”; so thanks to Rose & Valerie and the rest of the Gallery above for loosening up my thinking-cap.

So in the Beatles Museum I’d like to see (in no particular chronological order, and still far from a complete list):

_______________________________________

A Glass Onion .

John’s monkey who has nothing to hide.

The bird’s rug on which John bided his time (never got the bird’s name, even looked up her number…).

The jet fuselage of the British Overseas Airways Corporation jet (from Miami to Moscow).

The caboose from the One After 909 .

The letter box (retrieved from a space mission Across The Universe ).

The ship we sailed, the tree we chopped, the rope we skipped.

Mother ‘s dressing gown as father snored.

The slide from the Dingles Fairground in London (you know, the “Helter Skelter ” slide…).

The book that took him years to write.

The holy roller who’s got to be a joker’s armchair.

The peanuts Paul worked for before he drove her car.

The room Paul painted in a colorful way.

The Gideon Bible.

Rita and her sisters’ sofa.

John’s mother’s seashell eyes.

And, of course, the soap impression of his wife (on loan from the National Trust).

 

Faded flowers, wait in a jar, till the evening is complete... complete... complete... complete...

Along with the rug John bided his time on we need some real Norwegian Wood . Oh and a Ticket To Ride .

In the interaction zone the bench, umbrellas and fake snow to recreate the other Help ! promo.  

I would suggest John’s Dylan cap but i would only end up pocketing it for myself.a-hard-days-night-john-7

Of course we will have to sell postcards in the gift shop.

Will we take “writing letters on my wall” literally and have big sheets of paper where visitors can write us or the Beatles letters? Or will we take that figuratively and let them write on our Facebook wall? Who is going to run our social media/online presence?

We could do both. I love the idea of the big sheets of paper on the wall.

I always used ”fake teeth” but figured there must be just one word for it, just like there is in Dutch. However, I could never find the right word and here it is.
