Paint a mural…meet a Beatle. (x-posted)

Sir Paul McCartney visits mural dedicated to his work in Newcastle 

Be sure to watch the video at the link.

mural-1.JPGImage Enlarger

 

The mural, which includes references to several of McCartney’s musical numbers, was painted by Mitch Revs and commissioned by Venues NSW.

McCartney was quick to praise Revs’ work, telling the artist that he’s done “great work” and calling the mural “beautiful”.

He was then given the opportunity to add his own personal flair.

“Let’s see what we can do, I’ve never done this before,” he joked, before Revs replied “I’ve seen your artwork”.

“New career man, let’s go,” McCartney added.

In the end, he made his mark with two smiley faces — one in the middle of the iconic Yellow Submarine — accompanied by his initials.

“I did this, all my own work,” McCartney said cheekily as he posed for the photo, thumbs up and smiles all around.

“Taking all the credit, I love it,” Revs replied, grinning, before quietly thanking the Fab Four legend.

The link @Ahhh Girl posted went to the CBS YouTube page, the link to the news report is

 

One suitable punishment for the offender is watching that report on a loop.

Famous Abbey Road album cover recreated on the water in Southampton (Image: Southampton International Boat Show)

https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/ne.....ton-water/

...the Southampton International Boat Show has recreated the album cover, with members from a Beatles tribute band mimicking the celebrated walk on a giant stand-up paddleboard, with the marina boats giving the impression of the north London road.

A Yoko-style live art moment.

I really like the shadows on the water.

A Beatles Sgt. Pepper mural made out of Rubik's Cubes 

rubiks-1.JPGImage Enlarger

https://www.wthr.com/article/n.....9529798389

INDIANAPOLIS — A unique mural is commemorating a moment in Indianapolis entertainment history.
Indiana-based artist Cory Heimann created a mural featuring the four members of The Beatles for the Indiana State Fairgrounds Coliseum. 
But it's not your everyday art installation.

Heimann's mural was created from 2,368 hand-solved Rubik's Cubes...

After coming up with a design plan, Heimann put out a call on social media looking for "Cubers" to help him solve the cubes with the proper design to create the likenesses of John Lennon , George Harrison , Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr .

The mural was unveiled Tuesday evening as the Fairgrounds commemorated the 60th anniversary of The Beatles' only Indianapolis shows in 1964. It will be on permanent display in the concourse of the Coliseum.

And there are links to two other stories about the Beatles and Indiana.

There are also silver proof coins which look really nice. Tho one of the four 10oz silver proof coins costs £1,165 which is not going to be something I get for Christmas.

John is getting a coin too.

https://webgrafikk.com/blog/ne.....ts-minted/

The coin will be available to order from Monday the 17th.

The photo used to depict Lennon on the coin was taken by Bob Gruen on the balcony of John and May Pang’s apartment in NYC.

Paul McCartney Gold and Silver Coins Sell for Over $750,000 in Stack’s Bowers Auction

A selection of bespoke gold and silver coins honoring Paul McCartney sold for the astounding sum of $753,600 in a special auction conducted by Stack’s Bowers Galleries, hosted on behalf of The Royal Mint. These Presentation Edition coins were handcrafted by The Royal Mint in magnificent 5-kilogram formats with input from Paul McCartney ’s production company, MPL Communications, and with Paul himself. When asked how it felt to be commemorated on such a coin, Paul responded, “This feels like a huge honor. It’s not anything I would have ever expected to happen when I was a kid.” Only one gold coin and four silver coins were released in this presentation format for collectors, and all five were presented exclusively during the Stack’s Bowers Galleries sale.

The unique gold 5-Kilogram piece realized a total price of $600,000, now ranking as one of the most valuable modern British coins ever sold. It took over 250 hours to make, including three days of polishing, and was hand-signed by Paul during his 2024 Got Back tour in Paris, France. This gold rarity is a unique and inspiring treasure like Paul himself.
The four silver 5-kilogram pieces each realized $38,400, achieving remarkable premiums above the $5,400 bullion value at the time of the sale. 

Part of the proceeds will go to charity.

Saw this beauty in the MIM (Musical Instrument Museum). I had my first fangirl moment of the day when I saw this guitar.
