BEATLES LORE

Did you know George Harrison joined a chatroom AMA (Yahoo! Chat) in February of 2001 for the first time to talk with fans? Here are my favorite transcriptions:

george_harrison_live: It's my first time on a computer... I'm pretty illiterate 

captainwombat_2000 asks: Out of curiosity, why the garden gnomes on All Things Must Pass?

george_harrison_live: Originally, when we took the photo

george_harrison_live: I had these old Bavarian gnomes

george_harrison_live: which I thought I would put there

george_harrison_live: like kinda... John, Paul, George and Ringo

george_harrison_live: gnomes are very popular in Europe

george_harrison_live: and these gnomes were made in about 1860

gearfabasitwere asks: Is Indian music still a big infuence on your music?

george_harrison_live: Yes!

nikolaidisgm asks: George, what do you miss most about John Lennon?

george_harrison_live: John Lennon.

spongeweed70508 asks: Does Paul still piss you off (tell us the truth)

george_harrison_live: Scan not a friend with a microscopic glass -- You know his faults -- Then let his foibles pass.

george_harrison_live: Old Victorian Proverb.

george_harrison_live: I'm sure there's enough about me that pisses him off, but I think we have now grown old enough to realize

george_harrison_live: that we're both pretty damn cute!

george_harrison_live: Thank you all!

george_harrison_live: May God bless you all.

george_harrison_live: Don't forget to say all your prayers tonight.

george_harrison_live: Be good little souls.

george_harrison_live: Lots of Love!

george_harrison_live: George.

george_harrison_live:          

He was promoting the 30th anniversary reissue of "All Things Must Pass". 9 months later, he would pass away. The full transcription offers a refreshing glimpse to his quick wit and humanity.
