What if the Peanuts thing inspired the gun magazine which inspired the Beatles song…. *explosion*   

Actually, I’d say that is very likely.

  

I was kind of happy about this until I realised the connotations of a gun magazine taking what was a nice quote about dogs and turning it into a glorification of guns a-hard-days-night-ringo-13

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

Well, we as Beatles fans should all be happy that a gun magazine took what was a nice quote about dogs and turned it into a glorification of guns, because John Lennon took that possible-to-construe-as mildly sadistic quote about the glory of guns and turned it into an awesome song about the glorification of drugs, guns, and obscure cultural references. a-hard-days-night-george-10

Lucky. The only songs I hear in public are Here Comes The Sun and the occasional Let It Be . And there was that one time I heard Girl as an instrumental in the airport of the city Pete Best was born in.

Actually, I didn’t notice it was playing till halfway through the song bc a bunch of kids were screaming loudly and I couldn’t hear. So that was disappointing.

Also I just heard a cover of Here Comes The Sun during a commercial.

In the last twelve hours I have heard a terrible cover of I Want To Hold Your Hand and a semi-decent cover of Something , and in both cases my brother managed to identify the songs. I have taught him well 🙂

I haven’t heard any Beatles out and about recently. But I listen to them when I get home.

While Ahhh Mom and I were looking at the commemorative bricks in front of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as soon as I found this one20190408_110634.jpgImage Enlarger

While My Guitar Gently Weeps started playing over the sound system. Thanks for that special moment, Georgea-hard-days-night-george-9

The Beatles dominate the bricks outside and the content inside the RNR HOF. Lots of other singers, etc. are there too, but wherever the Beatles can be fit in, you find them there. They have a whole wall devoted to them.

I’m not sure where to put this, I think I’m in shock;
I just had a conversation with a person who couldn’t name a single Beatles song and thought that the band was made up of John Legend, Paul McCarthy, and Rango Smith. No joke. They had no idea who George was. My heart… it’s… it’s broken. a-hard-days-night-paul-10

I heard Don’t Let Me Down in the convention center hallway while walking between sessions. It was faint above the noise of the crowd, but my ears tuned in.
