Not shocked but very sad. The time that it happened was also strange because it wasn't that long after 9/11 and I was still in shock from that. I think it would have been a bigger thing if that had not happened 2 months earlier.

I was somewhat shocked and sad, but not to the point where I wanted to cry or anything. At that time, I wasn't as into George as I am now--I knew hardly any of his solo stuff (which I'm still just starting to get into) and I only knew him as a Beatle. Watching Concert for George made me begin to realize how great of a musician he was, and I'm more sad about his passing now than I was when he actually died. I still have the Chicago Tribune articles they wrote about him when he died... very glad I kept those.

i remember the day john died, like people remember where they were when kennedy died, i woke up and my mom told me on the phone...i was 21...i made it to work then had to leave, spent all day listening to the radio...i have at least 50 magazines from across the world of the trajedy.....when george died it was totally different, no shock at all, just kinda thought, oh well...he was ill for awhile...hmmm,     then a couple days later, i was listening to some beatles and then george and then it hit me....like a truck, the sadness, in a most selfish way, hit me...i was old, the beatles soul and spirit had died, paul and ringo were the fun...but john and george were the depth....the deep had become shallow, the world seemed a little different.   it really was like losing a friend, i thought about how he wrote "all those years ago" for john....and if john coulda written something for him, what he would have said.....i'm sure the two of them are cutting jokes up there as we speak. ........we still have the music!

I wasn't even born when Joh died, but I still grief over it in December. I was...negative-20-years-3-months-and-10-days....
 I was only 11 years old when George died and it really hit me hard, I completely changed personalities and I stopped being so outgoing and now I'm just so quiet and reserved, and my grades in school always go down in November. I agree with what was said before...and everytime I hear American Pie by DonMclean and hear that part of the song it makes me think...and yer right, as long as the music is still with us...I keep thinking they're all still alive, like they are living forever or something like immortal gods :)

I knew he died but I wasn't a fan. Now I wish I was as it was such a sad event. When they all pass away I know that my days after that will be very sad ones.

I want to meet Ringo and Paul before they die.

I was just watching the Concert for George again yesterday and when Ringo and Paul come out I just cannot help breaking into tears. It's SO sad. I just keep thinking about what it would be like if they were all still with us. I took if for granted when they were all still here I guess. Just always prayed for a reunion and stuff. Wish I would have been old enough to take the train to NY and meet John. I don't even think I knew he lived there at the time though!! If I did I would have begged my mother every day to take me!!!

It was very strange, beacuse I remember reading something on the internet about George dying tow days beafore he actually died, so when I heard thje real news I thought, well, they've kept it a secret until today. I was very saddened, but we all knew he had been suffering a lot...

I've been thinking...would you guys be sad if another (ex)Beatle died? I would. I wasn't a fan at the time George (and John) died. But it was really sad to hear that two of them passed away.

I'll probably go into some sort of depression again if anyone dies soon. My guitar teacher said to me one time 'Imagine what it will be like when Paul and Ringo go?' and all because he said that I couldn't sleep that night. And it's not like I have any friends that are not online friends that would understand why I would be upset. It takes me a while to 'get over' stuff too.

I still don't have Concert for George (I don't have the money for it) but I have the song Photograph with me and that's enough to get me teary-eyed. I can't even get Anthology dvd set until December, but I have the vid for Real Love and I can't even watch it once without crying.

OF COURSE!!!!! I'll be devastated.  I hope they live to be in their 90's. I can't take it if they go too early. I still haven't gotten over John and it's been 24 years. But it's the way he went that's why. But listening to some of George's songs get me teary eyed too.

I wasn't a huge beatles fan but i still loved his work... i was deeply upset over his death and it still bothers me... i remember when i first heard about the stabbing attempts... that was such a long time ago now...

I still have the Rolling Stone issue dedicated to him that was released on my birthday...

This one:


That was such an awesome issue... It really softened the blow a little bit for me...

He was one of those few people that I would've wanted to hold an interesting conversation with before he passed... But that's ok... We still have his music.  :)

George Harrison isn't the quite Beatle. His skils were just not discovered. I love George because he is very genuine.

That's such a good pic of him on the Rolling Stone cover. I love all the pics from the White Album. They used the one of John from that session on a lot of newspaper and magazine covers after you know.

I was shocked. I heard 3 songs on the radio of him following each other, which was strange, then they said in the news he had died. I cried, screamed, ran down and told my mom about it, cried, screamed, cried the whole day. I loved him so much.
