Beatles Trivia

I was hoping there were other Beatle fans at this board. Before I was into SW, Tolkien, Volkswagons, there was The Beatles. They were my first obsession......... So who wants to answer some Beatle's trivia? We'll start out with something easy. Generally, this is the first question asked when trading trivia: Who was the Beatles first drummer?

Oh come on, everyone knows that.... or they should. Pete Best Next question: What was Ringo's original name?

Richard Starkey What was the name of John and Paul's first band?

The Quarry Men Here's a good one. What Beatles song begins with a chicken? Hint: It's not "Good Morning", that's a rooster.

I don't think there are many Beatels fans here. Most of us are in middle and high school, so we were not born yet when th baeatles were very popular. I undersatns Ryan likes the Beatles dispite his age but-- it doesn't matter

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise) BTW, a rooster is a chicken :P Also, Tater was right with The Quarrymen Who illustrated the cover of Revolver?

There are at least three Beatles fans here, and with Ryan there's four. That is plenty to toss around trivia with :P BTW, I was your age when I first started listening to The Beatles....so you are right, it doesn't matter!

it was that klaus voorman or something like that..right? Anyways the cover wasn't completely drawn...or mabey that would just be the one i have...dunno. and what does age have to do with it? I started listening to the beatles when i was like...uh...8?

You are also right about the cover, it wasn't completely drawn, there were photographs also. I should have said ''designed". Don't you have a trivia question Ryan6233? Here's one while you think up one to ask Who is Martha, of the song Martha, My Dear?

Well, the only beatles song i know is "submarino amarillo". At least that's what it was called after I translated it for my Spanish class. Which was fun. Anybody know enough espanol to know what song that is? (it's kind of obvious) "En el pueblo donde naci, vivia un hombre quien navegaba el mar, Y nos decio de su vida en la tierra de submarinos. Asi navegabamos al sol, donde encontramos el mar de verde, Y viviamos debajo de las olas, en nuestro submarino amarillo. Todos vivimos en un submarino amarillo, submarino amarillo ..." I checked the grammar and everything about 5 times for that! You should appreciate my posting it. Now you can sing it with your friends!

I do appreciate the post!!! Good work!

Beautifull work Elanor! Which reminds me. What two songs did the Beatles record in this language, and afterwords swear they'd never sing in it again?

I'll answer yours if you answer mine.... :P

Does anyone know who Martha is? BTW, Tater you've stumped me!! :P

Here's a question, appropriate for today's date, Dec. 8th....... [i]What was the name of the crazed fan that shot John Lennon?[/b]

I'm not sure about the Martha one, but I'm waiting for an answer myself before I answer your other question.

Tater, which answer are you waiting for.....the one to your Spanish question, or the Martha one? I have no answer to your question (I can't believe you stumped me :P) As for the Martha question, it was Paul's sheepdog. Keep the questions coming, for yours are some of the more obscure that I have encountered

I don't know about the Spanish question, but the guy who shot John Lennon was Mark David Chapman. I'll add another question of my own. Who was the Beatles' original electric bassist, who died a year after joining the group?

Come on Tater we give!!! :P TOR is right!! Chapman, even obtained Lennon's autograph earlier in the day.....but you probably knew that too Stu Sucliff was the Beatle's first bassist, he died from a brain hemorrhage....a result of a mugging in Hamburg. Who is Sexy Sadie?

I'm so sorry! I guess I cofused you all, I didn't mean Spanish, I just wanted you to say what language it was AND the songs! I guess that makes it a LOT easier. Sorry!
