Mike Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 That was the question 33 years ago, April 1976, I was in the grocery store, peered over at the magazine rack, my heart started racing... the prospect was intriguing -- would The Beatles reunite for $50 million dollars? Link I can't believe its been 33 years!!! I still have that mag around somewhere.
RonJonSurfer Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 $50 million couldn't entice a Herman's Hermits reunion today.
Mike Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Posted April 16, 2009 Adjusted for inflation over 33 years it would more like $200 million today. It's that about half what what they'd likely gross on a tour in 2009? If?
MindCrime Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 I hope this doesn't involve digging up any rotting corpses.
miamisammy29 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 Maybe they could have another one of those "Rock Star" shows, like the one they had for INXS. Anybody could front this shaky band.
MindCrime Posted April 17, 2009 Report Posted April 17, 2009 Millions would try-out, even thousands of well-known names.
Barry Berry Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 The Beatles Today Guitars- Paul Bass-Paul All keyboards-Paul Brass instruments-Paul All Vocals-Paul Drums-Ringo Drum correction overdubs-Paul or.....maybe they can record,"Look What They've Done to My Song,Ma" Just buy those old albums and listen to the music it....listen to it hard...listen to it easy In them, you may find life... It's really too bad they never could best , maybe, to just let it be "the dream is over" - John Lennon
Epiphany Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 The Beatles Today Guitars- Paul Bass-Paul All keyboards-Paul Brass instruments-Paul All Vocals-Paul Drums-Ringo Drum correction overdubs-Paul Yeah, I can see that. I think that the closest thing to a reunion will be the Rock Band game... which is coming out 9/9/9/9/9/9/9/9/09.
pinkstones Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 As much as it would be cool to see Paul and Ringo on the same stage again, with that many members of the band gone, it would be a waste.
Pattie Lennon Posted June 25, 2009 Report Posted June 25, 2009 I have that magazine myself! Yeah, I remember those days too...hoping and praying that it was true and that they would come to their senses and start making music together again. I didn't care if they toured or not, I just wanted the music. I would love to have heard, for example, the full Beatles version of a song like "Instant Karma" or "Band On The Run". Fun to think about...
Lissy Posted June 25, 2009 Report Posted June 25, 2009 i love the beatles and i love wings my favorite beatles song is come together and hey jude
