Got an early Christmas prezzy last night, no, no, no not my anual shag, Mrs Bug says i cant have that till Boxing day when everyones gone home, no the prezzy was from the little'uns, tickets to see The Bootleg Beatles on the Liverpool Philharmonic, they were fucking brilliant! yeah ok i know they're just another tribute band but obviously we cant have the real thing, theres only 50% of the Beatles left!
The first half they were dressed in the classic Beatle suits and did loads of early stuff, fair brought a tear to old Bugs eye reminising, listening to our kids LPs on an old Dancette record player, and not being old enough to have gone and seen them on the Cavern ~ sniff.
Second half they came on in Sgt Pepper attire with a string quartet and a brass section, absolutely fantastic! Then another change into the stuff they were wearing on the roof making Let it Be, finishing off with a few off Abby Road.
I urge anyone who likes Beatles music, if the Bootlegs come to your town go and see them, there was a couple next to us who had seen them in Singapore and come to watch them here coz they wanted to see them in Liverpool? more money than sense! but hey as Mr Lennon says in The Ballad of John & Yoko 'Last night the wife said, oh boy when your dead, you dont take nothing with you but you soul, THINK'
ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
