Thanks Sarah. It's nice to be back at #1 although I think we won the previous time period also. Does anyone know for sure. And we gave the others four days start. Love and hugs. Sam.

Hi Giri (Paulfan). When we first began to listen to Rock'n'Roll in England we got it mostly from Radio Luxembourg on 208 medium wave band. Don't ask me what that was it was just an old fashioned wavelength. We used to lose the power of it every so often and one night I suddenly froze as I heard `Heartbreak Hotel' ffor the first time. It was amazing and at the end of the track the Deejay said it was "a new sensation from America Elvis Pres..." and then I lost the station. I went around for days asking people had they heard this new singer called Elvis Pres. Eventually I found out his full name and was a fan ever since. Elvis was the true King of showbiz. And a real nice guy !! He was the main inspiration for John and Paul...and all of us. We used to put soap on our hair and shape the front into an Elvis quiff. It worked fine...until it rained. Goodnight. Sam.

Hi Lacey Yeah it was a good show and quite hot out. Did you go to Starbucks after the show -- I saw someone there with the submarine. Cheers! Mike
-
That was me!!!! Several people commented on my Sub and Meanie, were you one of them? I'm embaressed now, however, I had been sweltering for so long in that heat that I had transformed into Medusa. Wish I had know that it was you.

I was wearing my Yellow Sub shirt.

Sam, That was a pretty interesting story. I used to be a fan of Elvis's when I was 7 years old and I am three years younger than Lisa Marie. I didn't become a beatles fan until I was 12 years old. Funny thing is that when I grow sideburns people call me Elvis even though I don't look anything like him. Once when I worked in a gorcery store I had sideburns and two black guys walked in and said hey Elvis,I got amd but I should have taken it as a compliment. Anyway I hope it is the 1950s Elvis as opposed to the 1970s Elvis. Jailhouse Rock used to be my favorite song back when I was 7 and I used to pretend I was Elvis. Another funny thing is that I tried to grow my hiar long like John's when I was 17 except I didn't have the hairstyle for it. Thanks to Elvis for inspiring the beatles and the beatles for giving us good music.

Lacey Actually I didn't comment on the submarine but I was just a couple of people behind you in line. Mike
-
Hi Mike, It would have been nice to meet a fellow board member. I remember you went to see Paul in Ft. Lauderdale, also, didn't you? It's a small world!
-
Lacey Agree, maybe next time -- hopefully Macca comes back soon. Mike

Sam Leach:
Hi Swaying Daisy Yes Ringo has done at least two concerts possibly more. He may have sneaked one in when I was in America though, heh, heh. quote] Hi Sam, I'm glad that Ringo has done some home town shows. I wasn't sure if he had. And I also had noticed in a few interviews that he didn't seem to express the same sentimentality about Liverpool that Paul does. Maybe its just a case of him not having as many ties to family and friends around there anymore. Or maybe its just me misinterpreting his comments!
-
Hi Mike, Lacey, Paulfan, Swaying Daisy, Jennifer and anyone whom I may have forgotten witth me being a senior...well almost, heh, heh. BTW where are Samcat, Cbimbi and Paulo from Brazil. Please forgive this mass post but I'm on a tight schedule just now. My youngest Son Tony was up in Chicago visitng me for the past few days and we had some fun walking around Downtown Chicago. But in the heat I've now got blisters....on my tongue. THanks for all the votes, we won again. Cool !! Back later this week. Cheers. Sam.
-
Hi Sam, I'm glad we have won. I'm sorry to hear about the heat. I'm not much of a heat person myself. What is Tony's favorite song of the beatles?
-
Hi Sam! Sounds like you've been having fun! We've been doing a lot of walking around, but not the fun kind, the getting kids ready for school kind (malls). Phew! They all look smashing now and all ready for school this Monday!
-
Hi Lacey & paulfan. Yes it was too damn hot...yet I enjoyed it being with my Son Tony. His favourite Beatle track might be... "All You Need Is Love" But I'l check that with him later this week when he rings from Las Vegas. Cheers. Sam.
-
Sam, family time is always something to cherish. It is good that ou enjoyed spending time with your son. All You Need Is Lvoe is a great track and I do hope that John's wish for world peace will come true one day or am I also just a dreamer? Anyway speak to you when you post again.
-
Hey Sam glad to hear you were able to spend time with your son! I am sure it was great!
Have fun on the tour!
-
Sam, does your son live in the US or the UK? Sounds like he has good taste in music!
Mine love the Beatles, but also like some of the latest dreck as well. Thank God for the Beatles and their influence!
-
Sam, American English is playing at the Will County fair on saturday, do you have any plans to be there? Thanks Larry
-
Hi Larry (Idmart). Yes I'll be there and at ALL American English concerts. Come and have a chat at the Merchandising table which will be at the side of the stage..usually. Cheers. Sam.
