D&D - Sept 9, 2009

First there was St. Patty's Day in March. Then the Tiger's home opener in April. Even though the NYE party was earlier than both of those, it wasn't technically a full show. The Faces Not Numbers broadcast came next in May. Though today's show wasn't exactly like those -- it wasn't a remote broadcast -- it was a "Very Special Episode" of the D&D Show. Beatles Rockband, baby! It's a nice gig when you get to play a video game for three hours straight. Today's show featured multiple live clips of D&D listeners and crew members butchering the hell out of paying tribute to the Fab Four. The "Doc of Rock" Doug Podell even got in on the action, as did a special celebrity guest (see below). There were a couple real Beatles songs played and two interviews from last week were replayed -- all of these were left unaltered in the spirit of the day. There weren't a whole lot of "real" segments to podcast on the website; here the ones that were selected by the bubblehead walrus (that's a Beatles reference, not a fat crack on Jim...though he was a bubblehead) over at WCSX.com:

1. "JACK NICHOLSON" (audio) - Colonel Jessup himself stopped by the WCSX studio and amazed the guys with his own Rockband rendition of "Ticket to Ride."
2. ROCKBAND RELEASE PARTY (video) - Watch some clips from the WCSX Beatles Rockband release party last night at Blockbuster! Love and peace to the old hippie!
3. LARRY DONABEDIAN (podcast) - Larry painted the Yellow Submarine album cover on his dad's garage! How cool is that?
4. GARY GRAFF (podcast) - WCSX Classic Rock Insider checked in with all things Beatles...Rock Band and The Re-masters...
5. GILES MARTIN - ALL THINGS BEATLES (old podcast) - He's the son of Sir George Martin, and the man behind the remastering of "Beatles Love," "Beatles Rock Band" and the new remastered Beatles collection...Giles Martin joined us LIVE from Abbey Road Studios in London to talk about working with Paul, Ringo, Olivia Harrison & Yoko
6. JOSH RANDALL - CREATOR OF BEATLES ROCK BAND INTERVIEW (old podcast) - It's the most anticipated video game release of the year (possibly ever?) - we spoke with Josh Randall, Creative Director from Harmonix about "Beatles Rock Band" - imagine playing in front of Paul & Ringo? He did...AT ABBEY ROAD! Great interview...very cool guy
