Title: Beatles on tour?
Post by: number14 on July 20, 2004, 11:49:05 PM

if John lennon wouldnt have gotten shot.... do you think the beatles would have gotten together and gone on tour. Like 20 or 25 years later. I think it might have happened. That wouldve been great wouldnt it ....

I don't know about a tour, but I'd bet they would have played together at least once by now, for LIVE AID or something. I'm actually glad they never reunited because they went out on top and there was no chance for mediocrity.

Of course. They never had a bad record, and ABBEY ROAD was their last. Other than the MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR film they never had a misfire. Why take a chance of ruining that with a mediocre comeback?

What are you talking about?

 I agree with Joe, if the Beatles plit up in 1970 wwas beacuse of a reason and you can't go back and play fab again. They might have got together for the Anthology series, but play together? I don't think so, ask George and he'll tell you how pleased he would be to play with Paul again... :roll:

Well, i heard of this kid named Jimi Hendrix who played guitar or something during that time.  Also, some bands called Cream, Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones flourished.  seems like true rock to me.
