    Question Q for any Beatles fans.

    Just wondering are you a fan of the Monkies as well? How would you compare the two bands?

    Westside.

    I do like the Monkies, but they were initially a manufactered band so that America could have a 'Fab Four' equivalent. Also, unlike the Beatles, the Monkies didn't write their own stuff in the beginning; artisits such as Neil Diamond wrote classics such as 'Daydream Believer'. As they progressed, the began writing their own material and began flopping in the charts.

    I am a MASSIVE Beatles fan, but it would only be fair to say that I do hold an interest in the Monkies.

    Yes, I geek I am!

    Well they would have to have some reason for following you, apart from being fed I can't think of anything else.........

    Sorry if this is off topic. I'll start another thread if you want..........
