Does anyone now about the live band appearing at Eleanor Rigby's, are they a proper tribute band or what. I tried to book a table but all gone so it should be a good night

Dining tables all fully booked. Plenty of room for drinkers though.

Its a Barry Snakes tribute, hence Barry not seen much in winter, as putting the tribute together in his

home studio.

So is it Barry on his own with backing tracks that he has recorded?

Never liked the Beatles, always preferred the Stones.....And look who lasted longest. ..Come on Barry don't go all McCartney on us now............. ..I think a bit of "Brown Sugar" would definitely make my medicine go down .....

Hello ! Rob ! not going all "McCartney" on you !!!! When I was a wee lad I grew up in a very musical and sport orientated family ! My father was a superb pianist, my brother a drummer, and I was forced played the trumpet !!!!! which I hated !!! along came the Beatles the reason why I moved to guitar swapping my trumpet for a very basic guitar and amp !!! Never looked back yet still have this allegiance to my early idols. The whole point of this exercise is to please the people who enjoy the Beatles music throughout the decades and not the people who like the Stones !! its like my preference to Taylor acoustics over Martins I'm sure you understand ha ha !!! But will still be performing my usual rock style concerts soon and look forward to seeing you and yours ! However , I have spent many months collating this concert and no doubt will receive the usual comments from the negative knockers on this forum but they will just get my middle finger kind regard Barry

the beatles live forever even in the spiritual world their music is heard,I like the Rolling Stones but the beatles really made an impact on the universe,when Paul came on X factor it was announced sales well over a billion

I don't think any one has come close to that not even Elvis I may be wrong and corrected

is there a web site that shows beatles total sales via paul Mccartney

Snakes you and Bootleg Beatles are doing a wonderful job of reminding those anti Beatles they are a minority

I have all their Lps, cd's and now their re mastered cd's and all their dvd's and I am not the only one

thanks to Paul their music is well alive cheers
