Description It is very sad when someone who isn't Paul McCartney made me fall in love with Paul McCartney XDDD

I went to see RAIN, the Beatles Tribute, in LA yesterday and I was just really struck. It was beautiful. Let it be was the second to last song that they played (during "encore"), and I just thought, man, I wish I could've actually seen the Beatles play it like this, but I guess I got the next best thing. Just moving and beautiful.

Anyway, long story short, I am now somehow in love with the Beatle who I liked less than the others, and blame it on the person who pretended to be him. Weird huh?

Paul is my favorite Beatle too! His voice is so moving, like you said!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I used to not like John as much, but now for some reason, your "John" art has made me like him more!

I love when John was messin around in a video I watched...

"Let it A, Let it B! LET IT C! LET IT D!!!!"

I would so love to go see that...... I have a love for the Beatles that just makes me happy. Can't explain it being that it is my granddaddy's favorite band. Make me feel close to him if you know what I mean.

Not weird at all, hun!
And how lucky you got to see RAIN!!! I remember hearing about them three years ago and I still haven't seen them... mostly because they tour everywhere else for such a long time they don't come back 'round to America until, like, a year and a half later.

But hey, being friends with/the unofficial official roadie for a tribute band ain't too shabby, so I'm not complaining.
Since you live in SoCali, feel free to note me and let me know if you'd like to check them out (btw, their name's Abbey Road). Showtimes, dates, locations,... I'm like their walking info booth. ;D

ffff aint it funny how it ends up like that?! XDD super tramp man! Goo Goo Dolls did a great remake of one of their songs and i fell in love with the group because of them. >8D

LOVIN MEH SOM BEATLEZ THAR!! beautiful picture. Beatles is something that will forever live on in our hearts. they are one of the few cases where you love them or you hate them. there's no in between. and its a very rare occation when u find someone who outright hates them. im one of those ppl that used to listen to them sooooooooo much groing up that i cant hardly stand listening to them anymore. BUT I STILL LOVE THEM! T^T

beautiful piece here. it warms my heart to see such pretty pieces of art when u know they were done with love and care.

Sometimes someone's potrayal of the character is better than the actual character. Like Luna in Harry Potter. She is way more adorable in the movie than in the book.

Well, if the 'Paul is Dead' rumors are true, we have to blame it on the person who pretended to be the guy who pretended to be Paul McCartney.

All substantial of course.

I saw Rain in in San Francisco and it was so amazing! It was great to actually feel the music if you know what I mean. Plus they were hilarious! Then again if your portraying the beatles and aren't hilarious your not doing a very good job...

As for the picture, hon, it's beautiful! I love the way you draw Paulie! Or rather "that guy who dresses up like paul" but either way it's stunning. I also very much like the two beatles in the background. Make me laugh teehee!

I know exactly how you feel. I saw them in Boston two months ago and AKJFLSDF I think there are a few Pauls, but the one at that show was fffffffff breathtaking. I like Paul more now too hahahahjajaja

To this day I couldn't give you a decent, thought-out reason why Paul is my favourite out of 'em. I certainly don't think he's the most talented of the four. Although, maybe that makes me sympathize with 'im more. No matter where he goes, he's in a couple of big damn shadows.

Beautiful picture - that and your little story got me. I remember I saw RAIN with my dad when it came to my city, and I just remember being in such a state of excitement - they were so fantastic...and I was really,really moved by it too. I remember telling my dad "that's as close as I'll get to seeing and hearing the Beatles as they were meant to be..." It was such a powerful experience, and it made me fall even more in love with the Beatles then I was, which is saying something.

It was extremely powerful.

Sometimes, if you just let yourself go, it transcended and you could imagine it was them

jejeje not that weird. Normal actually You just need somebody to showed you a good song, to catch your attention, it's like those good artist around that people usually don't know but one day you see one picture you really like in the favorite's of other guy that you love and then everything begins XD Maybe I'm crazy but for me it's the same.
Really nice drawing

I guess, it's KIIIINDA like that, but it's the person, not the music. XD I always loved the Beatles, it's the thought that someone pretending to be Paul got me to appreciate Paul McCartney. It's not so much an introduction as a reintroduction or a reimagining. You know?
