Bravo!

This made me smile for lots of reasons: Brown Eyed Handsome Man is one of my favourite songs Ever; the whole bit with the turnip truck driver; the two art students; the three-tit women. Wonderful!

And we're off! I'm very excited about seeing how this project goes - and reading this I got all nervous about it :-)

reading this I got all nervous about it---> seeing that I had a comment made me more nervous than I was before! Thank you for the kind review, this is my maiden voyage as a writer in a Beatle ship which is probably quite evident :)

I found it hard to restrict myself from having the boys kiss.
I can't wait to read what you and everyone else write :D It's going to be awesome.

It's not evident at all - you wrote that very well. Just the right amount of goofiness - John all out of control and Paul torn between joining him and getting business taken care of. Very true to them, I think.

Have you heard Paul's version on "Run Devil Run"? I love it !!!
very cajun......

0_0 I didn't know he covered it! It's such an awesome song :)

I didn't even know of the song until a few days ago.
And I had to have Georgie sing it ;)

I'll def. have to get my hands on that cd!

Mmyes. I'm on a hunt for it right now... he also performed it at the Cavern in 1999, along with "Twenty Flight Rock" and "All Shook Up" and... um... well he did "I Saw Her Standing There" too.

No, I haven't. I know I've heard a cover version but I don't remember who sang it - wasn't Paul, though. I know it best from a version Chuck Berry did in a concert with Keith Richards and Ron Wood and various other people (including Julian Lennon who sang "Go, Johnny, Go" :-) ). That was a long time ago now, though.
