The Rock Band video game franchise is here to stay, and Harmonix unveiled their first artist-specific version, Beatles: Rock Band, at the E3 conference yesterday in LA. Some special guests were on hand to make the intro.

It was a Beatles reunion, with Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney sharing the stage at this morning's Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. The two living members of the legendary band dropped in on the Microsoft press conference to show off a new video game: the Beatles: Rock Band, developed by Harmonix and published by MTV Networks. [snip] Yoko Ono, widow of John Lennon, and Olivia Harrison, widow of lead guitarist George Harrison, also took their bows at the press conference.

This non-gamer who gets repeatedly sucked into a Rock Band frenzy at parties is hoping some of his friends who might read this go out and buy this game when it comes out September 9th.

Help!
	Artist: The Beatles

Ringo Starr turned 71 yesterday. Here's The Beatles' version of a Buck Owens classic featuring the 'funny one' on the vocals. Happy Birthday Mr. Starkey!

A little historical discussion before Liverpool 8, the latest by Ringo Starr (Happy belated birthday!)

We missed this little request from him on his birthday, but since my kids are of the belief that birthday celebrations should last the week, I see no reason not to honor it today as well.

Peace and Love, Ringo. Peace and Love.
