    1 1 2 2 3 9AM I’m sad to say that I’m dedicating this first couple of songs here to our dear friend Stan …you know him as Stan the Hot Sauce Man….whose Mom Marion passed away yesterday…Now we got to know Marion here on BWTB quite well…as she came hung out with us more than a few times She also made me that British Flag quilt blanket And BWTB pillow…that we often talked about…she came down to all the events at Capitol Records…Just Imagine shows…everyone loved her…and she will certainly be missed…and here is Marion’s favorite Beatles song. 3 4 The Beatles - If I Fell - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John and Paul John Lennon’s stunning ballad “If I Fell” was by far the most complex song he had written to date. It could be considered a progression from “This Boy” with its similar chord structure and intricate harmonies by John and Paul, recorded – at their request – together on one microphone. Performed live on their world tour throughout the summer of 1964. Completed in 15 takes on February 27, 1964. Flip side of “And I Love Her” in the U.S. On U.S. album: A Hard Day’s Night - United Artists LP Something New - Capitol LP The Beatles - In My Life - Rubber Soul (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocals: John with Paul Recorded October 18, 1965 and written primarily by John, who called it his “first real major piece of work.” Of all the Lennon-McCartney collaborations only two songs have really been disputed by John and Paul themselves -- “Eleanor Rigby” and “In My Life.” Both agree that the lyrics are 100% Lennon, but John says Paul helped on the musical bridge, while Paul recalls writing the entire melody on John’s Mellotron.

  • 'Tommy Wiseau's '
    MEDIA ALERT – January 16, 2018 Due to Overwhelming Fan Demand, Encore of ‘Tommy Wiseau’s ‘The Room’’ Comes to Cinemas for One More Night on January 19 WHAT: Referred to as "the ‘Citizen Kane’ of bad movies," “The Room” has received a remarkable resurgence due to the popularity of James Franco’s “The Disaster Artist” and Tommy Wiseau’s recent appearance on The Golden Globes. On January 10, fans came out in droves as Wiseau’s opus hit more than 500 big screens across the nation with “Tommy Wiseau’s ‘The Room.’” Due to overwhelming demand, an encore screening has been set for Friday, January 19, 2018. In addition to the full-length feature, moviegoers will enjoy a special look at the new “Best F(r)iends” trailer, starring Wiseau and Greg Sestero. Starring Tommy Wiseau, directed by Tommy Wiseau, written by Tommy Wiseau, screenplay by Tommy Wiseau and produced by Tommy Wiseau, “The Room” follows the story of Johnny (Wiseau). Johnny is a bank employee who, seemingly, lives happily in a San Francisco townhouse with Lisa, his fiancée. One day she gets bored with Tommy and seduces his best friend, Mark (played by Wiseau’s best friend, Greg Sestero, author of the award-winning 2013 memoir “The Disaster Artist”). Johnny screams, “You’re tearing me apart, Lisa!”– and, with that, nothing, or no one, will ever be the same. WHO: Fathom Events WHEN: Friday, January 19, 2018; 7:00 p.m. local time WHERE: Tickets for “Tommy Wiseau’s ‘The Room’” encore will be available throughout the week online by visiting www.FathomEvents.com or at participating theater box offices.

PLAYLIST JULY 29th, 2012 HOUR 1 George Harrison – Bangla Desh George wrote the song in “ten minutes,” for his friend, Ravi Shankar’s war-torn homeland. While in LA working on the soundtrack for the Raga film, Ravi informed George of the atrocities occurring in his native India. Leon Russell, who played keyboards on the session, contributed the idea for the “story” introduction to the song. The song included George, Eric Clapton, Ringo, Bobby Keys, Billy Preston and Leon Russell. Although the lineup is disputed by Jim Horn, who recalls that himself, George, Leon Russell, Klaus Voorman and Jim Keltner were present. voice break The Beatles - I Should Have Known Better - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Following their triumphant visit to America The Beatles were thrust back to work.

  • How's It Going Bros: Pewdiepie's Memeing in Tertiary Orality
    HOW’S IT GOING BROS: PEWDIEPIE’S MEMEING IN TERTIARY ORALITY by TRAVIS BROWN (Under the Direction of Shira Chess) ABSTRACT PewDiePie, the most subscribed YouTuber with 61 million subscribers, became a controversial figure in 2017 after cases of hate speech in his videos. While his hate speech has obvious room for exploration, it is impossible to examine his hate speech without first analyzing the creation of his memetic language within the broader digital culture in which he exists and how users within that digital culture adopt his language. This thesis explores the development of orality in digital culture, placing PewDiePie in the middle of the tertiary orality and meme culture. Upon analysis of PewDiePie’s videos and the language adopted by his audience, I conclude PewDiePie’s intent for his speech does not matter, as propagators of hate speech interpellated that they are the subject of his speech.

  • Stir Music Credits
    Music Cameron Allan music conductor Chris Nichols Cameron Allan is an under-rated composer who began working during the Australian revival (and often working with Chris Nichols as conductor, though Nichols is credited as Nicolls on Jim Sharman's adaptation of Patrick White's The Night the Prowler). Allan was inclined to the "less is more" style of screen music, in contrast to say Brian May's notion of "more can never be enough, more please" style. Allan was also inclined to exotic instrumentation suggesting Asian influences. Both tendencies can be seen in his work for Stir, and it has a moderating influence on any tendency to drift towards melodrama. Ben Goldsmith made these astute comments on use of music in the film: The use of music … throughout the film is … noteworthy. Music is rare in the film, but it is used extremely effectively. It is heard for the first time at the end of this scene (the opening stylised sequence shot with a blue filter) providing a bridge to the title sequence that follows. Cameron Allan's score is minimalist in style, consisting solely of short repeated phrases, often only one or two notes, on pizzicato strings or piano, often accompanied by a variety of percussion instruments - chimes, wooden blocks, rattles - suggesting the characteristic soundscape of the institution: the ominous, oppressive rhythm of officers' footsteps along cell block corridors, bolts clanging, keys jangling, doors slamming, sirens wailing. It is not until the end credit sequence that the music comes anywhere near a pleasant melody, but even here the piano is hesitant, with notes allowed to reverberate as we contemplate the rioters' fate.
