http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html George Martin Presents: The Beatles: News Jannis' PHPRss class - http://www.jannis.to/ Mon, 06 Feb 2012 01:58:30 -0800 http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#17 This was a special show, a surprise birthday party for their "Paul." I would be playing Paul, but since their Paul was there, he might want to set-in with his own group. When he did, I took over the part of one of the other "Beetles."
That evening I got to play all 4 Beetles with the show...John-Paul-George-Ringo. You've heard of the "Trifecta"...Well now I had the "Quadrafecta". But in this case I think we'll call it the "FABfecta"]]> http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#17 Wed, 04 May 2011 00:00:00 -0700 The One-Man Beatles Tribute Show! - George Martin Presents: The Beatles - News http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#16 I have now learned to play "Left-handed Hofner Bass" in my show. You know, the hardest part wasn't the fretting hand (RH)...it was the pick-hand (LH).
It's actually easier to play with your fingers (I did that first)but, many of Paul's bass lines require using a pick.
It's like you have to switch the sides of your brain...DUH!
The only problem is when I look at myself in the mirror now playing left-handed Hofner...It looks like I'm playing right-handed Hofner...What the!!!]]> http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#16 Mon, 08 Nov 2010 00:00:00 -0800 The One-Man Beatles Tribute Show! - George Martin Presents: The Beatles - News http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#5 ]]> http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#5 Mon, 08 Nov 2010 00:00:00 -0800 The One-Man Beatles Tribute Show! - George Martin Presents: The Beatles - News http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#15 Thank you Bill for a beautiful afternoon of Music & Fun...Sirifax, you see, is a standup musical comic "...IN LONGVIEW"]]> http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#15 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700 The One-Man Beatles Tribute Show! - George Martin Presents: The Beatles - News http://georgemartinpresents.com/news.html#14 The class ends with the recording of a Beatles' song...along with the students participation. Mark acts as Sir George" The Beatles record producer...and I play the parts of John, Paul, George & Ringo. We record each track separately. I play all the instruments and sing all the vocal parts. The students add "Hand Claps" and sing along. We usually do the whole song in about 15 - 20 minutes. (no time for 2nd takes)
The class has become so popular that alot of the other professors "sit-in" on the presentation. Even the Dean loves it and has asked us to do the presentation at other colleges.
