...and a happy Soulful Sunday to y’all!
Sunday. Soulful. Charles Bradley, Change For The World, 2016 (are soundcloud clips ok to post?)
This ain't exactly Bluegrass Beatles but, it's Julian Lennon's hit in a bluegrass style. I happened to see it "Yesterday" on RFDTV.
Happy soulful Sunday.
.
Notice that they don’t show it with the cassette dangling out held by the tape which is tangled in the machine.
Soundcloud is fine. You can listen to it on soundcloud or through the browse. So nobody is excluded.
...speaking of “Yesterday”, does everyone know about this?!
...a movie based on the idea tha no one, ‘cept this one Englishman, knows about, or remembers The Beatles...
We caint wait!
Looks good!
A lot of kids today can't name a handful of Beatles songs.
My fav Beatle tribute band is The Analogues.
It’s 20 past 4 on a Sunday afternoon...my Bride and 5 friends just left to have Girl Time...
It Might Get Loud.
Wait!
First it might get Happy...then it might get loud...

A lot of kids today can't make change for a dollar since they never use or handle actual money and many can't read the time on clock that's not digital. I used to just laugh and say it's not my father's world. Now I have to admit it's not mine either...and I'm not laughing quite the same way about that!

Well put...
Everytime I see one of the threads about how only dance bands can make any money playing live, I think about all the Beatles tributes out there. They had some danceable numbers but you could hardly call them a dance band. And yet, we're still attracting audiences with their music.
That's only the tip of it Mr. @Al Kraft . There's a darkness among the younger generation today. This leads to anger sometimes. No money-- hard to get a job that pays to buy an overpriced home-- no money for education or health care-- no wonder they're morose or angry. And using 'smartphones' has made them dependent on technology rather than thinking for themselves. Recently I bought an apple pie from Micky Dee's for 76 cents. I gave the clerk $1.01 to get a quarter back. He just didn't get it-- I asked him to do the math in his head and he was told by management to always use the registers. He acted like I gave him a major revelation when the register said 25 cents change... sheesh... and don't even get me going about cursive training..A lot of kids today can't make change for a dollar since they never use or handle actual money and many can't read the time on clock that's not digital. I used to just laugh and say it's not my father's world. Now I have to admit it's not mine either...and I'm not laughing quite the same way about that!
Other than that-- have a great Sunday everyone!

Ticket prices for tribute bands playing large venues is nuts. They cater to the older crowd and charge accordingly. At the top you have the first rows centre stage with backstage meet and greet as well as pre show sound check. Then the other seats in the front rows. Prices for the other seats fan out accordingly.
The top seats for the Australian Pink Floyd show a $250. Postmodern Jukebox $220. Prices vary with venue. Good shows granted but with taxes, dinner, etc a pair of tickets can get up there.

Of Pink Floyd ... see that Gilmour is auctioning 80 (?) guitars including The Black Strat.
I've had that happen too. Also, one time the change they gave me was wrong, but they had cleared the register. Had to get the manager to correct it. And, they want $15.00/hour now.
Going May 11th to see the Fab Faux!
