Beatles Day

The day of his birth. His first day of kindergarten. His Indiana Pacer's Locker he got as a Christmas present. The time he mistook me as someone who might actually have lightning at my diposal. And of course the day in which he married "Mrs. Thug Mrs." All these were significant days in Sean P. Stevenson's life but none of which match the magnitude of September 9th, 2009 Anno Domini. In Sean's 25 years of life he has seen a wave of technology fly by unlike of anyone any generation before him. He was there to witness the original Nintendo to become the Wie. He was there to witness Word Processors become computers. He has seen Pacer games from a once blurry wwt4 t.v screen 20 games a year to now seeing every game in the high quality of HD television. He has even been here for the music revolution that has gone from cassettes to cds to ipods. And with all this his life has been lacking one thing, the revolution of the Beatles to the new millenium.

Now what is amazing to me is what has taken so long for this music to be remastered. Look at Disney, I can't even watch a whole commercial without knowing that Bambi has been remastered. You would think that with a kagillion dollars the Beatles have made already they would use a small part of that money to remaster their music to make to make a kagillion more and here's another added bonus, your music is going to sound infinetely better than it did beforehand.

Editors Note: The above picture of Trish Stratus is intentionally being put in to offset the picture of Sean.

Sean brace yourself for this story because it may cause a Revolution in your life. While in the library yesterday I overheard a junior high boy ask who the Beatles were. He had seen the commerical for Rockband and was unaware that they were an actual band. Instead he thought they were part of a kids show that was Hannah Montanaesque. This incident nearly led to a Ben Affleck like ass whooping from Dazed and Confused. What are wrong with kids today?

Still, it seems like the Beatles have been working from old forms that still have the "19__" on the top to help you with the date which makes it even more refreshing that Sean can finally have his day in the sun.

I have been thinking long and hard what I can compare this day to in the eyes of Sean. I myself have never had to wait so long for anything my entire life, for Sean to have to sit there while pile of garbage after garbage gets remastered and rereleased and your'e just waiting for your day to come when all will be right in the world. So to culminate this momentus occasion I have taken a quote from the famous speech from the President in the movie Independence Day said about the world regaining independence from evil aliens and have altered it to fit this day about the Beatles.

"Good Morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others around the world (to purchase Beatles merchandise). And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind (bidding wars). "Mankind." That word should have a new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore(which is better a Hard Day's Night or Yellow Submarine). We will be united in our common interests (The Beatles). Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July(09/09/09), and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution....but from annihilation (Yoko Ono). We are fighting for our right to live (through The Beatles). To exist(through The Beatles). And should we win the day, The Fourth of July (09/09/09) will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice "We will not go quietly into the night!"(And when the night is cloudy, There is still a light that shines on me, Shine on until tommorow, let it be.) We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day! (Beatles Day!)"
