I was at the grocery store today and a Beach Boys song came over the sound
system (Wouldn't it be nice). There was a man and his son near me. The kid
who was I'd guess 10-12 says, yelling really, "Alriiiiiiiight more Beatles".
The dad said, "no, it's not the Beatles". The kid insisted it was. Not sure
why the dad didn't just say right off instead of keep telling the kid no.
But after about 5 "no it's not" he finally said who it was.
The kid said, "oh, well I love this song but I wanna hear more Beatles, the
Beatles ROCK!". As they proceeded down the isle the kid kept going on and on
about the Beatles. All I could do is smile.
I'm actually witnessing similar things more and more often. Like we got
an inquiry for our vacant drummer position from a 23 year old. I sent him
our ultra-classic rock set list (late 50's to very early 70's with lots of
Beatles)
thinking he would go, "oh, yeah, well maybe some other time". But he wrote
back super jazzed and said he loves all that stuff.
Cool!

Nature loves a vacuum! Judging from my immediate interactions,
including my own kids, "Across The Universe" gave the Beatles a real
boost. |

To be precise, I should have said "loves to *fill* a vacuum".
Speaking of Oreck, I need a new vacuum cleaner. Thanks for reminding me
