The visionary who signed The Beatles, George Martin, passed away last night.

Known for introducing lavish arrangements into the pop and rock sound of Fab Four, he produced virtually all of their records.

With a stellar 23 #1 records, his list of famous orchestrations includes Yesterday, Eleanor Rigby, and A Day in the Life.

His career was not exclusive to the Beatles though – his final hit was the remake of Elton John’s Candle in the Wind, as a tribute to Princess Diana.

While No One Was Watching, Public Drinking Became OK in NYC…

Public-Drinking-in-Texas--512x380

The Manhattan District Attorney just announced, with no fanfare at all, that the NYPD will no longer make arrests for public consumption of alcoholic beverages.

Translation – while you may get a warning, you will no longer receive a summons or fine for public drinking.  The exception though, will be for those who pose a threat to themselves or others (looking at you, Tara Reid…)

So, if you’re looking for a way to celebrate the new, liberal policies on booziness in the big city, grab yourself a pitcher or two and come celebrate next Friday, March 11, at our next Dueling Pianos show at The Bling Pig.

Tickets are still available at www.ShakeRattleRollPianos.com, while supplies last (of tickets, and pitchers…)
