And now for something completely different - a movie recommendation

"YESTERDAY"
I saw this one quite a while ago but having a soft spot for the Beatles, it stuck with me.  If you haven't seen or heard of it, it's worth a look.   It's about a struggling musician, who while pedaling home on his bike with his guitar after his last unremarkable gig, gets hit by a bus after a blackout caused by a momentary power outage.  His teeth knocked out, he makes a recovery-- but what he doesn't know is in that moment of the blackout, all the world's memory and knowledge of the Beatles is wiped clean - except for him.

His friend's purchase him a new guitar and take him to lunch, and this is where he learns no one has heard of the Beatles.

Outstanding film

The Beatles were the first boy band.

I enjoyed it, but I felt the ending was bad.

Thanks for the reminder.  I'm not a Beatles fan but it looks like a good flick to check out.

What are you a fan off?

I'm a fan of this group called "The Vapors", but I am outraged that it is not "The Vapours".

Interestingly, Wikipedia says that they used to play in a pub called the "Three Lions."  And it turns out that I used to go to the Three Lions pub in Redmond, WA after AH scenarios, to recount glorious air battles with fellow scenario players.

I didn't see any of the Vapors there, though.

That was disappointing, so I moved to Tennessee.

Yes

Said group was good while it lasted

I do try and keep that part of my life secret

I've heard it said once or twice long ago "the Beatles ruined America", though I wouldn't give them that much credit.

After this post, I pulled it up and tried to watch it. Was hard with such poor acting. Fifteen minutes is all I could stand. Good idea though.
