I Hate Music

April 12th, 2007

Not With The Beatles

Fifth Beatle Quits says BBC.

It won’t surprise you to know that I think most musicians are a bit dim. But even I have to admit that they’re usually cleverer than the people working for them.

“The man responsible for the Beatles’ business affairs has quit after more than 40 years with the band. Neil Aspinall, 64, started out as the group’s road manager and used to drive them to gigs in his van.”

I think it would take most people less than 27 years to notice that the band they roadie for has split up.

    27 years is bad enough, 37 is just plain embarrassing.
