A Bruncher Writes
Joe,
Thanks for selecting me as the July BB Winner! I have listened to my new CD several times today. What great renditions of these great Beatles songs by Peter Mayer! I Love "Fool on the Hill" and "We can work it out". I was just scrolling the BB Website when I saw my picture with my grandson on the site. It was nice talking with you about all of the great Beatles things happening at BB. I listen every week and wouldn't miss an episode ... you guys take me back to my youth! Keep Rockin'
Peace! Steve
PS I also just ordered a new BB shirt and am looking forward to it's arrival!

Hello Beatle Brunch,
I just received the new Ringo CD in the mail! Thank you SO much!!! I listen to your show on WSEN-FM in Syracuse, NY. Keep up the great work!
Larry Maxwell

Hey Larry!
Glad it got there safely! Enjoy! Especially "Walk with you" which features Paul.
Cheers, Joe J

Her World’s Rockin’
Here’s Shannon’s story about her painting, “A Hard Day’s Night / The Album” (John, Paul, George, and Ringo) taken from the movie, A Hard Day’s Night.

“I watched the movie, freeze-framed, and sketched. The original painting includes all four faces on one 36” x 36” canvas. It’s main placement, in the ‘A Hard Day’s Night / The Album’ Room of The Hard Day’s Night Hotel, Liverpool. It was decided the faces would be separated and each fixed upon the building’s façade as a timeline. This final decision was made only a few months before the Grand Opening.” Read More
