Beales Infestation

Hi everyone, sam Hell here. It's time to introduce you to Sammy, my utility belt. Who is Sammy? He's Egyptian, he's from Scarlem, he's Jesus' age, and he goes everywhere I go. Come to think of it, I think it might be me who goes everywhere he does. Sammy writes blogs for us from time to time, and it's finally time to begin posting them here! Enjoy...



Beatles Infestation

Friday night at the Horseshoe.

Place is packed, takes me several minutes to get a drink at the bar. I require the drink as I'm nervous. sam Hell has that look on his face when he's about to get into mischief. I start wondering who I should call when I get permission for my one phone call.

He'd decided rather than doing a traditional set of his own songs, he'll play 2 or 3 of his own tunes then rock out with a slew of Beatles covers. Turns out the mischief is all inclusive. Everyone can get behind this and it happily doesn't require bail money. Now I just need my drink to celebrate and supply the courage so I can sing at the top of my off key lungs. That night he performed the following Beatles covers (in alphabetical order):

Back In The USSR
Come Together
Eleanor Rigby
Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey
Get Back
Got Get You Back Into My Life
Help!
I Am The Walrus
Lady Madonna
Magical Mystery Tour
Taxman

Monkey cracks me up—sam enjoys playing that way to much—and Walrus is great fun however being sober I'm not sure how much sense it all makes. Being that we live in a democracy this is your turn to speak…what Beatles songs would you like to see sam cover in the future? Or not cover? Maybe there are other bands and other songs he should attempt to cover instead.

Speak up now or forever hold your peace.

Sammy
