As stage invasions go, this one’s pretty special. Let’s just say it’s up there with that time Monica Geller jumped on stage with Bruce Springsteen. When Paul McCartney’s world tour stopped in Buenos Aires on Tuesday (May 17), he shared the stage with one Leila, a 10-year-old girl from the Argentinian capital, who hasn’t let […]
Sir George Martin, the legendary producer and so-called “fifth Beatle,” has died at age 90, with Ringo Starr and Sir Paul McCartney among the first to pay tribute. In a statement on his website, McCartney called Martin a “great man,” saying: “He was a true gentleman and like a second father to me. He guided the career of […]
The British singer and TV star Cilla Black died yesterday (August 2), aged 72. And tributes and quotes have been coming in from some of the many people she worked with in a 50-year career as one of the nation’s favorite broadcasters.

The audience at London’s O2 Arena signed up to see the Beatles’ Sir Paul McCartney perform classic Beatles songs and new material, but the fans soon realized they were in for a treat when Foo Fighters founder Dave Grohl hopped out on stage during the Saturday night (May 23) concert, reports CNN.

Yesterday (July 16) it was announced that Ron Howard will direct and produce a new Beatles documentary, with the full authority of the band themselves.

This week sees the 50th anniversary of the Beatles era-defining first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. If one moment could be said to illustrate how completely they managed to up-end popular culture, it is this one. And of course, they are directly responsible for creating and feeding Anglophile sensibilities, without which this blog would […]
