ER, do you know which song they played? Every band was at the least enjoyable to see and hear.

SgtPprsGirl, I know what you mean about doing covers. I feel the same way. We start out copying note for note (not to sound too corny or anything but you get the essense of the song that way) and then it usually winds up transformed into our style. A song like And I Love Her,however, stays exactly the same as the record.
The Devils? No, can't say that I follow hockey.

"All you need is Love...Love is all you need."

Yes, I do actually. I heard them from the lobby outside the ballroom and didn't get to see them.

hey Jtal,
That's awesome... I find it hard to do any kind of cover with out adding a lot of myself/influences into it. I don't know if that comes from being a songwriter myself or being a big music fan of other groups/artists as well.
Bruce rocks... but are you a Devils fan?!

jtal: Congratulations on doing so well! I haven't visited this site in about a month because of a spate of some terrible luck my family and I have been experiencing. I was very happy to read about your successful experience at Beatlefest. Good for you, pal! I hope I'll have more time to check in with all of you again.

Welcome back, OFan. We've missed you here.

Jtal909 : Congrats mate...!! You made a remark earlier in the forum that your band is just basically a "BAND" with family and jobs. Those are the bands you "Like to Hear". Congrats again Jtal909...!!

OFan : I missed you...!! Welcome back...!! Is everything OK with you and the family..? Once in awhile, I see your son posting on the Beatlelinks. We didn't have another fire in the kitchen again, did we..? Anyway, good to see you again OFan...!! Take Care,

Glen V.

Don't worry, Glen, it wasn't another fire, thank goodness. It was a string of miserable events, beginning with the theft of my husband's wallet with ALL his identification in it. These savvy thieves ran amok using HIS name and credentials. Thousands of dollars of ill-gotten merchandise was amassed and WE'VE been going through he-- trying to straighten out this mess and keep our impeccable credit-rating from being destroyed. Right after that occurrence, numerous break-downs around the house took place. We thought we were plagued or something!!! However, after spending huge amounts of money and dealing with repairmen who don't really seem to care, all appears to be well for the moment. (I don't dare say this out loud, though, lest I awaken the gremlins!) Now, aren't you sorry you asked??? Thanks for caring, pal! P.S. My son is Dr. Winston O'Boogie; there's also a Dr. Winston O'Boggie on this site, so don't get confused like I did! Cheers!

OFan, I hope everyone is doing alright now. I know what a hassle it is when your wallet is stolen.
As for things breaking down, doesn't it seem like it's always within a week AFTER the warranty runs out?

'kat: Ain't that the truth! I also forgot to mention that our car was vandalized while we were out having dinner at a local restaurant several weeks ago. Can you blame us for wanting to throw in the towel? However, spring is here, baseball season is upon us, so hope springs eternal...

Gotta love baseball season. I was surprised last Sunday when my wife told me after breakfast that we were going to Yankee Stadium as a birthday present. One minute I'm eating scrambled eggs, 2 hours later I'm sitting in left field.
