There must be HUNDREDS of Beatles videos you can use to promote your crappy
music, huh?

Quite funny, but I cannot tolerate this for more than a few minutes at
a clip.

I don't "hate" that comedian . . . . . but I can tolerate him in small
doses only.

Anyway, I saw the first 6 or 7 minutes. Parts were funny, but his
portrayal of Brian Epstein as a very horny person with a one tracked
mind was just too much.
He really comes across like a pedophile or weirdo or something. It
was the same joke over and over; after a while it was not funny.

I posted it, and I actually didn't see the whole thing either. I
should have specified you have to kind of scroll through it. If taken
in small doses it is pretty good. Yoko's voice is what originally got
me.

try skipping to the 11 minute mark , or around there, when the Beatles
meet Bob Dylan
Considering that one comedian did all these parts I think this is
quite funny.
It satires when the Fabs met Bob and he introduced them to pot IIRC

suppose that is the wonder of an impersonator, he can do some

This is quite creative I think and enjoyable

I think the guy is actually pretty talented. Some are funny, some not
so much. He has some of the idiosyncracies down for each character,
I'll give him that.

yes I do think he is talented. He picks up on some physical feature of
a performer or some body language that is very typical of that
musician , exaggerates it (like Ringo's nose)
and does some reasonable imitations.
He actually is quite observant. He does have quite a few of Paul's
moves down , and he tries to imitate Paul's eyes and then when he does
John he imitates John's gum chewing (he noticed that John likes to
chew gum while performing) and John's thin tight lipped mouth.


This last video where he shows Donovan teaching John a guitar style
actually is educational because IIRC, Donovan did teach John a new
style of guitar picking. Then for us non musicians, we get to learn
into what songs that style has been incorporated.

all that you say is what every impersonator would do, that's their
work.
i don't like him cos i don't think he's funny, i don't think his
scripts are well written and the characters that he gets they're all
annoying, in my opinion.

OK, I agree that quite a few of his scripts are annoying or
insulting. (You know, like, OK we get it, Ringo has a big nose).
The only one I really thought was laugh out loud funny was when Dylan
met the Beatles. That one did make me laugh out loud.

I find the work of the impersonator of interest because he or she
really needs to study body language and facial expressions, etc etc
and here on the internet our method of communicating is so 2
dimensional it lacks that facial communication.

I have brought out this point in other discussions when people here
tend to mis understand each other.


But I do like the futuristic presentation he did, of what would it
be like if U Tube and 2 of the Beatles joined together. Of course
that song, Vertigo with the roller coaster in the background probably
borrowed from Paul's song Helter Skelter on the Grammy awards with the
roller coaster film footage
