Hi....I'm new here, well almost. I've been reading this forum for about 18 months now..some very interesting discussions so I thought I may as well register. I have been attending Liverpool Beatleweek since 1988( mainly as a performer) I'm a massive Beatles fan and have been as long as I can remember (yes I remember them first hitting the charts though I was only 8 or 9 yrs old)......any road...keep up the good work and I'll keep reading with interest. Bob.

Hi Bob!! Wow, you must be one of the longest serving performers at Beatle Week then! What band are you in, may I ask? Welcome to the Beatle Forum! AL

Hi Al Thanx for the welcome, My first band in the late 80s was "Walrus" followed by "Apple" in the early to mid 90s and latterly "Banned On The Run"

Hi Bob. I've seen Banned On The Run many times and you have always been a highlight of Beatleweek. It's always impressed me that you go out of your way to perform more obscure McCartney tracks rather than doing predictable McCartney songs.
Are playing Beatleweek this year?

Hi to you too....Yes I am playing this year at the Philharmonic Hall as part of "70th Birthday Salute"....I plan on doing a selection of songs from the 1991 MTV unpugged set. I don't really play anymore as I'm getting too old to be lugging gear around when my body is telling me to go to sleep!!!.....Anyway I joined this forum because of all the interesting debates that take place..the "Pete Best" one was great. You'll have to make yourselves known to me when we are at Beatleweek in August. I'm not sure I'll do another one after this.

You must be Bob Bartey then!! My goodness, I too have seen you play many, many times over the years! Sorry to hear this might be your last Beatle Week though - you would be sorely missed. If you would like to join us (i.e. Beatle Forum members) on the Saturday, it would be an honour to buy you a beer and chat about JLS (just kidding)!!! We're all meeting at 12:00 midday in the Grapes AL

Ah that's a shame - I'm sure our paths will cross plenty of times over the course of the week though :-) I'll still get you that beer but promise no JLS chat!!
