The second-generation Pontiac Sunbird, introduced by the automaker for the 1982 model year as the J2000, was built to be an inexpensive and fuel-efficient front-wheel-drive commuter car capable of seating five.

Also have you guys ever seen George's son Dhani? It's scary how much he looks like his dad.

the beatles probably would have reunited in the 80s, but it would have been the biggest letdown of the century

like, imagine a beatles album entirely full of cheesy 80s synth and superproduction. it would have bombed so hard. just imagine the beatles reuniting at live aid 85 or something in their mid 40s playing tracks from their early 60s catalogue because everything they made in the studio after was too complex to perform live

This is the sobering moment that Beatles fans never got. The Who and the Rolling Stones are so many times less cool when you see them going on money grubbing tours well into their 70's. They play lousy and the atmosphere's lacking. Sure you can see McCartney live, and I have, or Ringo and while I enjoyed McCartney, any criticisms die-hard fans have, will fall down to "well it wasn't all the Beatles", as if they believe that having all 4 would've been the best thing ever. Seeing all bands live, while fulfilling and fun, is still not seeing them in their prime. Any songs they'd of made afterwards would've probably been well crafted cause that was their thing, but they'd probably be derivative of the times or at the best the things that made the times what they were. And then we'd all be blaming he Beatles for creating disco.

I'm torn, on one hand suckering baby boomers out of money is god's work. On the other hand, gently caress Paul McCartney.

Its kind of hard to wish for the death of a dead man. James Paul McCartney died in 1966, and if you do take the time and do a little research there is no way any rational person can deny this fact!
