The One With Those British Guys From Liverpool

I've been playing a bunch of The Beatles: Rock Band lately and it inspired me to look up some of the classic performances that the game recreated.

The Ed Sullivan performance which was The Beatles' 1st performance in the US


and

The Apple Building Rooftop from the film Let It Be



Although the game never really delves into the strife the band experienced during the bands later years, I will say that The Beatles is probably the only band to have the catalogue and mainstream appeal to make a game like this. I'd say that in this way, it is a wonder achievement...

The One About "9"

Happy 09/09/09

"The Answer Is Always 9" - No Name

So I'm sure many of you have seen the previews for today's release of the movie 9. But were you aware the concept was a short film back in 2005?

The One With The Beatles: Rock Band Intro

Harmonix, the makers of Rock Band, sported their latest project with this cool intro video to the game.



The game is slated for release on 9/9/09. Personally, I'm perfectly happy with the latest iteration of Rock Band 2 and the weekly DLC updates. Whether or not the market is prepared to go another round of plastic instrument purchases for this game, I'm not really convinced. But I will admit, that trailer does reveal to me that they've done their homework on the Beatles and are focused on bringing a full Beatles experience, and to that I say ROCK ON...
