Mick, every time I hear about this, I can't help remembering the other up-coming anniversary. :( :(

Yes, That's right mate and me too.
The only consolation is that the release application has been revoked and hopefully it will be set in concrete that way.
My 4 daughters love his music to bits and everything that John stood for which makes me a bloody happy Dad.

The first solid etched memory of world events was the night he was assassinated. I was 9 years old and remember where I was and what I was doing. I wonder what kind of impact he would have had on our world had he lived.

Lennon and Harrison were the only Beatles I really cared about, don't really care for the other two.

Happy b-day Johhny.

I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong.

I had a similar memory etched into my mind when I was 9 years old: the assassination of JFK...

As Beatles, they were all great.

Solo, Ringo just bores me silly.
