maybe the example of the neighbour is not perfect... also because if you have a neighbour like the intet-at-tabe one, you can't understand. :grin:
i like the beatles very much, i listen them many time and i think they are the band who definitly changed the music. so they are the best.
i was just talking about emotion and rolling stones, in my opinion are very hot.
i was explaining two different point of view.
i'm like doc. jekyll and mr hide. :grin:
Dear Grace
There is nothing at all wrong with your answer, you came straight through to me - emotional, no problem, cool
. You speak of The Rolling Stones emotionaly, I can easely follow you. The Beatles were sort of small gentlemen in nice suits (the same). The Stones - rockin. Mick Jagger´s sensual movements on the stage, his voice (he could actualy sing) and the music itself with much longer songs and the stage performance quite different from the Beatles (from what I´ve seen many years later in various programs of memory of The Beatles).
The Stones could play much better rock music based on the blues, than the Beatles. Keith Richards was a much better solo guitarist than Goerge Harrison. They did extended concerts and their songs, the lyrics was not only about She Loves You Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. They had a deeper meaning. Both bands were popular, but The Stones were known, like The Who, to keep wild after-concerts-parties with hookers, alcohol, drugs and acid trips. Their relations to the Hells Angels often used as body gards at concerts, where everything ended up in huge fist fights and people driven for hospitalisation.
Most people in Denmark and I guess the world found The Beatles and The Rolling Stones side by side in the 1960´s - AWESOME, but the audience were different according to, who you favoured. The whole wide world loved both of the groups, until John Lennon made some stupid remarks about God and Jesus Christ in a Johnny Carson show in the USA, because it was new almost like a fiction, a dream, it was new that young people demonstrated peacefully through the idea of playing music instead of violent demonstrations against the Police. It was new that all you had to do was to find a guitar, learn to play a few chords, then you were in a band. The newspapers made the image of The Rolling Stones in the 1960-70´s, what Guns & Roses became years later in the USA.
Personaly, I loved The Beatles more than The Rolling Stones, but also my friends pressed me a bit, you know like groups of teen-boys do, I even had one of those grey Beatles jackets. Ringo Star and The Beatles was the reason for my years long extended career in practising air-drums :grin: The Beatles taught me more english, than I learned in public school. The Pepper album changed my life, I can sing it all through, while at sleep.
Remember Grace we don´t disagree, and if we did it would be great to agree to disagree. Music is about taste, and you can´t discuss memories, nostalgia and emotions about, what you felt about both bands. But it´s still great from time to time to talk about it openly like here, where we´re all winners. I can still laugh or feel fear, remembering some of the crazy things, I did with friends in those days often life threatening, but boys are boys and somehow everything during the 1960´s were AWSOME and related to rock music.
Sometimes, I almost wish myself back in time.
