It's [livejournal.com profile] allisona's fault because she asked:

Are you a fan of The Beatles? Why or why not? Do you think their reputation is justified or hype?

First-Generation fan: Did you see the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show in February '64? Did you ever see The Beatles live? Or just tell me any Beatle story you like.

Second-generation fan and beyond: When did you discover The Beatles and how? Did you ever see any of the Beatle re-creation shows ("1964" or "Beatlemania!", for example)? Or just tell me any Beatle story you like.

But now I've got this seriously wedged in my brain:

Whoa, whoa, I
never realized what I kiss could be
this could only happen to me
Can't you see, can't you see
And I just know I'm going to go from one Beatles tune to another for the rest of the day. It's a good thing I like The Beatles. And it's a good thing I wasn't counting on getting any composing or arranging done this weekend.


Got the morning off to a reasonable start, though I did notice that I was especially tired. But as I crossed midday I noticed that I was moving more and more slowly. So plans for this afternoon have been pushed back to dinnertime, and with any luck I'll be packed by then and will have sorted out the Samba problem that's keeping me from accessing the spreadsheet I use for my checkbook so I can pay some bills (I know aproximately how much is in each account, so worst-case I can just be very conservative and tally everything up later, but I get twitchy about it).

... That when I tell you that I love you, oh,
You're gonna say you love me, too-oo-oo-oo-oo, oh...

Love early moptop tunes :).

Two sets of memories and you are in both of them:
1. Wandering through the woods in Irving with you 3 Musketeers singing Mr. Moonlight for me ('cause you all were raving about how bad it was and I didn't know the song.)

2. Going to the Turkey-Knob Talkies to see Yellow Submarine with only 2 Musketeers and having #3 Musketeer RABIDLY bitch out my post-movie good mood because HE'D scheduled a basketball game HE had to referee w/o checking the movie schedule first.

I'd like to be under the sea
In an octpus's garden with you.

*smooch*

On a different note,
I got cats in my closet and my email's dead,
There's a feelin in my gut that might be dread.
My hair needs washin' and I feel quite gross,
I'm really not much of a rose,
No I'm really not much of a rose.

Here's the segment that most directly concerns you:

I took guitar lessons for a month at Baltimore Bluegrass, and he tried to teach me tab. Unfortunately, I didn't know the tune of any of the songs in the lesson book. I went out and bought a book of early Beatles music in tab, and away we went!

The rest is on http://www.livejournal.com/users/allisona/87115.html.

Trying to remember if any of the filk I like is to Beatles tunes...
