Who the heck are those guys, anyway?! [22 Mar 2008|09:01pm]

[ THIS ] is not Gerry & The Pacemakers!

Heh.
I've gotten poohed at one too many times for
trying to point out errors to eBay sellers.

EDIT ~ Somebody named "Wendy" informed him of his mistake ~ however, he still persists in believing the bloke in the middle is "a very young Gerry Marsden."

UMMM...NOT.

Have a pic or three while you're here )

Here it is:
Hi everybody,

Good to see some new members signing up for the boards.

I'd be happy to drop some clues on some other characters that are in the script, but I'd love to see everybody else's thoughts first.

Who would you like to see in Brian's story? Who do you think deserves to be there?

For those of you who don't subscribe to my [info]eppylover journal,
here's a cross-post which is very FBM-related:

Could John Simm play Brian Epstein?

Look at this [ interview video ] which also includes a clip of his performance in Life On Mars ~

I'll bet you didn't know that Bri produced a record for a group other than his Boys, a group he didn't even manage himself! Apparently this was also his only attempt at producing a record.

## OCT 20
1964 -
Before his clients, The Beatles, give two performances at the Caird Hall, Dundee, England, their manager, Brian Epstein, produces his first recording session.

IBC Studios, London

The session, held at IBC Studios, London, England, is for Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, whose drummer had been Ringo Starr before he joined The Beatles (Ringo is at this session but doesn't play on it). Rory (aka Alan Caldwell)'s sister Iris had been George Harrison's first girlfriend when they were 14. The group recorded the tracks "America" from the U.S. musical "West Side Story" (which would be the A-Side of the group's only released single), a cover of The Everly Brothers' "Since You Broke My Heart" (which would be the single's flip side), as well as "Ubangi Stomp" and "I'll Be There".

Caird Hall, Dundee, UK
rare video of that Oct 20, 1964 show )

Liverpool remembers Brian Epstein [02 Sep 2007|05:14pm]

FROM: What Goes On.com

Liverpool remembers Brian Epstein
WHAT GOES ON BEATLES NEWS EXCLUSIVE
by Katie Hickox


Brian Epstein, the Beatles manager who brought the Beatles out of Liverpool and engineered their success, was remembered yesterday throughout the city of Liverpool on the 40th anniversary of his death, August 27, 1967.

The rest of the article, some pictures and surprises, etc. )




Criteria for receiving a blue plaque on a former residence of an honoured person:

In order to be eligible for an English Heritage blue plaque, a figure must have been dead for twenty years or have passed the centenary of their birth, whichever is the earlier.

etc. )


IT'S A DISGRACE

Katie feels it's a disgrace that the City of Liverpool has never erected a plaque in front of Brian's childhood home at 197 Queens Drive in the Childwall area of Liverpool, even though at least three have been put up for John Lennon in different sites. Brian truly deserves, for once, to be honoured ahead of a Beatle or two.

Martin Lewis feels it's a disgrace that so many other, almost anonymous non-performers have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (See my old post on that travesty), and Brian has been cluelessly omitted.

Christine agrees with all of the above, and also feels it's a disgrace that Brian has never been posthumously knighted ~ well, at least received a posthumous MBE. He more than deserved one when his Boys received theirs!

How many more times can I say the word disgrace?

Can you think of any other ways Brian Epstein can be remembered and assured his place in history as an equal alongside The Beatles? Thank you!

This is the only frame in the entire comic where Brian is wearing a flamboyant scarf.
And, "coincidentally," the only frame where he's staring INTENTLY at John.
Mr. Comic Book Artist = smartass?

Oh, and yes, for some inexplicable reason, Brian is shown in
the entire comic book as having RED HAIR. WTF?!
