Rudi,
It’s a huge time saver that keeps me from having to hunt up new replies.

Tim,
Don’t go beating yourself up about it. It’s a bulletin board and it takes all kinds to give their perspectives on how they feel about what’s happening in MLT land. At the Intergalactic Fan Club we’ve always got growing pains going on. I think since so many of the MLTs fans are older and have many years of memories and experiences in music, especially 60s music we’ve sometimes got opinions that can sound a bit out of sync within a diverse group.
Remember the point here is to discuss what’s on our mind. Do it in a respectful and positive way. And keep remembering this is supposed to be FUN! Let the fun continue.

Jacki,
All of the songs on Beatles and More Vol 2 have already been released on You Tube now that I’ll Follow the Sun has been released, with the exception of Baby Mine which is why Tim said he had listened to nearly all of the song on BAM 2.

I’m also anxious to hear how they tackled Hey Bulldog.

Tim,
Not offended. I’m just looking out for the best interest of the MLTs. I don’t think many people realize how truely hard the gang has worked thus far and it’s been financed mainly by the Wagner family’s savings and donations from a few to keep the good times rolling. Merchandise sales help pay the bills and as fans we can’t lose sight of that fact. I will always remind fans that it first takes money to put these videos and songs out.
Now as far as I can tell in one week Club members will be able to download the new CDs and enjoy the music as they wait for the physical CDs and other merchandise they order to arrive in the mail. If I’m wrong on that then someone can correct me.
Regards,
Rich

Nope. nope, nope. Too much of a chance that some “excited” fan will pre-release the music and hurt sales. Patience is golden and helps sales. I commissioned the MLTs to do a cover song for me 2 years ago and it will finally be released on BAM 2 and except for my family and Team MLT no one has heard that song for the past 18 months when they finished it. We both agreed that it would never see the light of day till they were ready to release it in a future project which has now arrived. If fans are serious about keeping this wonderful music coming you’ve got to also respect the fact that it needs to be allowed to be monetized as best as possible by the Wagner’s so they can afford to make a living on their music.

You’d think with Macca running all around the world promoting Egypt Station that he’d fancy a duet/trio with a couple of lovely ladies in Liverpool to hit even more new fans with a new musical twist. He’s never been too keen on gals singing on a Beatle tune but you could change his mind I’m sure. Where were you girls when he came to Liverpool to do the Carpool Kareoke filming?

I’m never sure how the clock runs at the Wagner house. I know you’re 5 hours ahead of me here in Sunny Florida but I think when the creative juices flow you folks hop to the studio and record when the idea is fresh. I was excited to see some of the Thalia capos that I’ve been sending you on the guitars used in the I’ll Follow the Sun video. When you zoomed in on the name I thought “Now that’s a good commercial plug for Thalia”. Bet they’d love to see it to use on their website since they love musician’s feedback.
Well talk again soon and looking forward to seeing all the new features as the Club evolves.
Virtual hugs to all the gang.

Thanks Mona for clearing that up for me and others.
