Well it sort of sounds like "Across the Universe" but with a Scottish accent...................

Thanks, I'll pass but arrange a jam with Nazareth and I would strongly consider crossing the pond for that opportunity............

Were they i could not sleep last night maybe it was the band!(Or maybe it was the excitement that i was going to put a big deposit on a shiny new 08 midnight 360 today with FWI and stunning shiny sparkly new finish)MMMnnnmmm Stunning ive not got it yet but very soon!SSShhhh the mrs doesnt know 3 ricks in 7 months is going to rock her world! Hey its only rock and roll but she aint gonna like it!

Scotty, whether you forget to take out the trash, make an "insensetive" comment, or wake up in the cat box after a night of drinking(don't ask), she's gonna be mad at you about something, so you may as well get all the geetars ya want.
We have a spare room if she sends you packing.
Congrats on the 360, the link threw me at first with that PRS neck inlay right under the Rick as the page loaded. For a second, I thought the mad scotsman had gone mad indeed.

Here's an easy question set about The Rutles.

Name the four Rutles both stage and real names and then name a world famous author who played a cameo part in one of their movies. Name the movie that the author appeared in.

I'm feeling guilty answering this:

Ron Nasty - Neil Innes (John)
Dirk McQuickly - Eric Idle (Paul)
Stig O'Hara - Ricky Fataar (George)
Barrington Womble/Barry Wom - John Halsey (Ringo)

Salman Rushdie appeared as an interviewee in The Rutles 2 - Can't Buy Me Lunch

Full marks mate!

Here's some more:

Name the 2004 indirect connection of The Rutles to John Cleese. Also name the person responsible for orchestrations and arrangements for the Rutles recordings and lastly what was Nasty arrested for?

I know, but I'm not telling!

It's someone else's turn...

Evan I suspect that you only felt guilty answering the question set because you are their biggest fan and you could write a book on them.

What is written on the masking tape (near the soundhole) stuck to Paul Weller's white 330 - shown here on TOTP?

Could be true. The first time I saw "All you need is Cash" I luaghed non-stop. The when it was over, I realised I'd been the only one laughing andthe three other people in the room were staring at me in the most disconcerting way.

Anyway, the answers are:

John Clease co-wrote a graphic novel by the title of "Superman: True Brit", in which members of the Rutles appear. I believe Jouhn Huston was the arranger in question.

Finally, tea was the substance that Nasty abused - he was arrested for possession.

Me and my drummer love the Rutles. I have both cds, but just the original dvd. I heard the second dvd was just a rehash of the first and not worth buying,is this true?
