I'm hoping I remember to watch the show. I would love to see them perform together.

Love my grandkids: Paul was my honeybunny when I was a kid. I remember all the girls had their favorite.

I loved George...the dark moody type. I had a poster of him taped to the ceiling over my bed. I used to listen to his albums looking up at George and wondering why he didn't marry ME. My husband thought I was just being silly.

I am sorry that I paid little attention to George. Saw a concert of his music after he died and all the great things he did for the world. Such a humble, generous, talented man. He is now my favorite Beatle.

I heard AND I CANT WAIT! (they are also getting lifetime achievement awards) I am the biggest Beatles fan ever and have their complete sets on cds and on vinyl. Anyway- our DVR is set and I will also be watching it live. My one teen granddaughter is also excited. Thankfully she knows good music and LOVES the Beatles too. I have been (little by little) buying her their albums re-mastered on vinyl! (And PS she always says she loves Ringo and hes so cute, and then she adds you know the young Ringo not now when hes in his 70s. I laugh. Kids!.lol).

pood would be all over this. (Anyone remember a poster named pood?)

John was my favorite Beatle. Still can't believe he was only 40.

Thanks for the heads up! You made my day. I've been in love with the Beatles since 1964. It was Paul for me back then. More recently, George became my favorite. So much talent in his own right.

I'm not crazy about Paul's recent songs, but he's still Paul. A couple of years ago, I saw Ringo's All-Star Band on tv. Mark Hudson was in it. They were absolutely fantastic!

I'm here ennui1

Paul still has it at 71-still selling out concerts! I'm hoping to make it to a couple more this year, and pushing my Paul concerts # to 20! (or more)

My choir is doing a spring concert of Lennon/McCartney songs-I told our director he could put my DVD of me meeting Paul on stage on a continuous loop to show on our screens....

Shorty - I am going to challenge you regarding being the biggest Beatle fan ever, but I guess there is room enough for two of us. I have read just about any book out there regarding the Beatles, both as a group and individual biographies. Have any of you read the book "Tune In" by Mark Lewisohn? This is just Volume 1 and it goes up to the time they made their first record and were becoming popular in England. There are going to be two more volumes but not sure when they are coming out.

Anyway, it's great reading for the real fans. It's about 800 pages and like I said, it's only up to the time they are making their first record. Excellent book for the real fans. I am almost finished reading this book and looking forward to the next volume (whenever that comes out).

Un-uh, pood thinks she is the biggest Beatle fan ever, but I am going to challenge all of you!

Okay, I have an 8-track recorder at home and I have been painstakingly re-creating Beatle songs for years. I play keyboard (which has drums and all other instruments on it), guitar, harmonica, and I sing and harmonize. I listen to each song intently and write out each instrumental part, my intention being to reproduce their songs as exactly as possible. And they don't sound half bad when I'm done, if I say so myself, lol.

But seriously, there's enough room for all of us!

naturalfan, I haven't read "Tune In", but will definitely check it out on your rec. Have you read, "Here, There and Everywhere" by Geoff Emerick? He was the Beatles' recording engineer for many years and literally grew up with them as they were starting out. He relates the inside story of what went on inside the studio and also the Beatles' relationships. It is excellent!
