Yeah, he's pretty phenomenal. Daltrey, Entwistle, and Townshend all had the same reaction after first playing with him: "Moon's alive!" They actually offered him a full partnership in the band, but he turned it down.

It is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen.

Are you going to insult the planet with this idiotic offspring????The Beatles are not relevant to people anymore. New generations see them as NOTHINGS, therefore these will be the offspring of NOTHINGS to them. The brainwash of your generation is OVER.How do you dare polluting the musical planet with these idiotic kids????We shall see how long your bullshit will last....from the Beatles to the BEATLESS....

Yoko broke up the Beatles and destroyed John, after all. The golden years of The Beatles were 1963-67. When John was still married to Cynthia. The problem about Yoko is not that she is Japanese, but that she is an avant garde artist.
