bouche Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 A bunch of us are going to see Rain:The Beatles Experience at the NAC on Feb. 21st. As a crazed Beatles fanatic, I used to see Beatle acts in Kingston in the late 80's early 90's but I haven't seen anything remotely similar nearby since. These things are always so much fun.

Del Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Closest Beatles experience I ever had was seeing the Pete Best Band in Thunder Bay... It was a free ticket, and an awesome show as well... I remember the lead singer repeatedly yelling "We're from Liverpool!"... They closed the show with Hey Jude. I met Pete Best and shook his hand... Yes, that's right, I've met a Beatle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hux Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 I saw McCartney in TO in '93, last tour with Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Sorry Hux, but Del's story is waaaaaaaaaaay cooler to me.He met the equivalent of Jeff Holdsworth. You saw some guy that replaced Paul because the original died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hux Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Well, in 2000 I met The Other One's bass player Alphonso Johnson, surely that would out rank Del's PB story? Having Alphonso in the band - wow - I can still hear the Lesh-less harmonies..... .....Bring back Alphy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I didn't really think much of it at the time... We all kind of went for a joke... Looking back, it was pretty cool... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 "....did it sound like Box of Rain?" Actually, it had more of a PicASSo Moon feel to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hux Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 An interview with Weir, included on a promotional CD for the Built to Last album, includes a hilarious retelling of the origin of this phrase, which just popped out of Phil Lesh's mouth one day while the band was sitting around in the studio: "Picasso moon. I don't know why I said that!" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Yessssssssssssssssssssssss............. :) Best thing Lesh has ever come up with IMO.

Booche Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Once again, you missed the moral of the story not unlike Bobby fails with his inflections.Phil was making a comment when he first heard that tune. He beant over and while pointing at his ass with a pick he yelled out:"This song sounds like its a Pick ASS - Oh moon" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic ChrisC Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 For those interested, The Rain: Beatles Experience had added another show in Ottawa on Sunday February 20th, again at the NAC. I'm going to the Monday show already and since that one is selling very well, they added another show. Cool. Pre-sale on now for the Sunday show: Ticketmaster Rain: Beatles tribute web site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
