I'm actually quite surprised by how much I like them now, they have a bunch of songs that I didn't even know was them like Twist and Shout :shock: Obla di Obla da :ask: and a cover of "Boys" which actually works well!

We have no great war, no great depression.
Our great war is a spiritual war.
Our great depression is our lives.

I remember going to the theater to see the movie "Help" and "A Hard Day's Night" maybe nine times - and I was six then. We were obsessed with the Beatles. We had Beatle boots, Beatle horses, Beatle camp...with my sister and two friends we made a foursome that each took on a Beatle persona, and I was Paul McCartney.

I've always liked the Beatles since then. :biggrin:

I got into lots of trouble back then for going to see "Help" with my brother, and staying in after it finished to watch it through again. Mum & Dad were waiting for us to get home so they could go out to the pub... we both got :paddle:

I'm no musician either, I'm playing it on a video game :hehe: though I've heard that on the hardest setting it is actually how the drums would be on a real set!

They don't bring the kick-assness I expect out of music. Plus my parents like them and my tastes and theirs are like NOMA.
