anyway, with the better half of the Beatles already dead this would nevertheless be still worth some money. but not the incredible sum tickets will obviously be sold for.

I'm sure they would have loved to attend except for that whole being dead and all. Unless you can raise the dead, stfu

it would be cool if they played beatles songs but only the drum and bass parts. leave all instrumentation that wouldve been done with george/john out of it.

like what the minutemen did when dboon died.

I think "at risk" means kids who grow up in poverty and deal with a lot of stress. Learning how to meditate is supposed to help them deal.

This doesn't seem that cool.

Ringo and McCartney are by far the two less talented members of the Beatles, with Ringo being almost irrelevant.

Ben Harper is cool, Eddie Vedder will be alright, but other than that I don't see what the big deal is besides the whole OMG itz teh facking beetels!!!!! thing

For a long time Harrison was the least talented Beatle because he wasn't very good at guitar and wouldn't practice. He improved immensely on every album after Sgt. Pepper's though.

He became a better musician on Revolver though.
