[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]I made an avatar like that, it was pretty sweet.[/QUOTE]

I remember that. That was a pretty sweet avatar. How do you make those?

Somebody stole my Lennon thread idea:evil:. Led-Zeppelin made a really good thread though, and I'm just happy someone made it. I'm looking forward to a John tribute on Thursday. Too bad I have school on Friday, or I would be able to take the train into Strawberry Fields which is a small place in central park dedicated to John Lennon.

Um, it was a long complicated process. Basically, I took a picture of the 4 beatles together, cropped them into their own seperate pictures, resized them into 70 x 70 and then used Photoshop to make a flipbook out of them.

If anyone wants to steal it.

Ok, I finally adopted a Lennon avatar for remembrance.

[QUOTE=Carne Evil]All of the Beatles had interesting solo careers (Ringo not as much as the others, but you get my meaning). George really only came into his own when the Beatles broke up. So, I really don't see the problem with starting an "individual Beatle" thread since the post-beatle beatles were still interesting musicians.[/QUOTE]
This thread has already been established as a "Beatles and post-Beatles" thread. So, a tribute thread would be spiffy. But establishing a "Let's talk about Harrison's solo career!" thread wouldn't fly so much.

Noooo. The horror. :smash:

Just thought I'd use the new Smilie thingie. I don't know if its new, I just havn't seen it before.

MBS 12-06-2005 10:01 PM

:smash: has been around forever.

:smash: I don't know either, I don't use smilies much.

And I changed my avatar, but it's a Lennon one.. So, it's not really like yours.

Not bad. It's different enough that I no longer feel the shame of having the same avatar as someone. :lol:

I like the one were he is sticking his tounge out. Nice avatar.

DeusExMachina 12-07-2005 04:02 PM

There's a new Beatles biography out, and a John Lennon biography out. I want to pick them up.

MBS 12-07-2005 06:04 PM

I told my friend about that biography, since he needed to read one for english. He picked up a biography of Apple instead and thought it was the Beatles because it had the Beatles on the cover. :lol:

Broken Arrow 12-07-2005 06:22 PM

I saw a John Lennon biography by Cynthia Lennon at Costco. I'm not sure if its new or not.

I'm getting a Lennon biogragphy for Christmas though.

blue3 12-07-2005 06:27 PM

I think Cynthia Lennon wrote more than one book about John. I've read 'A Twist of Lennon' by her. It was alright.

Magical_Mystery_Tour 12-07-2005 06:30 PM

Tommorowis the big day, eh? My local classic rock station is playing 24 hours of Lennon, so it should be pretty sweet.

Jacaranda 12-07-2005 06:35 PM

Heh, I went out and bought a shirt from JC Penny's just for tomorrow. It's horribly ugly but I don't care, it has John in New York picture on it with Imagine lyric's on the back.

DeusExMachina 12-07-2005 07:13 PM

That's awesome. I want to get a cool Harrison shirt, like with a picture of him playing the sitar or something.

Those are the kinds of shirts that i'd kill someone to steal them.

Where do you live?

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]That's awesome. I want to get a cool Harrison shirt, like with a picture of him playing the sitar or something.[/QUOTE]That'd be cool. But is there even a Harrison shirt like that that exists.. I have transfer paper, so I guess I can always make my own Harrison shirt.

I'm planning to wear my Lennon band shirt all day tomorrow, even at this Christmas concert where everyone has to wear something 'nice'/formal.

Krabsworth 12-07-2005 09:03 PM

Definately wearing my Beatles shirt tomorrow.

Magical_Mystery_Tour 12-07-2005 09:36 PM

I'm going to wear my brown Let It Be shirt tommorow. It's my fav. Beatle shirt.

Lunch 12-07-2005 09:37 PM

I'm doing a paper/presentation on the Charles Manson and the Family murder trials, and that is some interesting stuff. I got to talk about the Beatles, which was my main reason for picking that topic.

Seafroggys 12-07-2005 09:40 PM

Shirts are overrated. Hell, I don't even think my only Lennon shirt will be washed for tomorrow...oh well... :(

Montana.
So I was talking to a freshman in my choir class who alway's wears Beatles, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin shirt's and I asked him to name 3 Beatle's songs and he couldn't, but I'm not the mean type so I am bringing him all of their CD's! I hope he is prepared to be ear fu[SIZE="2"]ck[/SIZE]ed.

blue3 12-07-2005 10:16 PM

Yeah, there's a lot of people in my school like that. But 3 songs? I thought everyone knew at least 3 songs by the Beatles..

Him: "Let It Be.... umm... Yellow Something?... er... YOU NAME THREE SONG'S."

I couldn't either. :upset: Instead I show'd off and recited all of [I]Sgt. Peppers[/I] in track number order same with [I]Let it Be[/I], [I]Abbey Road[/I] and [I]Revolver[/I].:cool:

blue3 12-07-2005 11:09 PM

Hah. That's pretty cool. I can't do that. :upset:
