[QUOTE=“Piles Hussain, post: 1122127, member: 363”]All of Kraftwerk are still alive, there are only 2 Beatles left and they’re in more decrepid shape.
The brits might start out feisty, but despite their bulldog spirit, the strength of numbers wins it for the germans after a couple of two counts.
It will all end when Hutter distracts the referee, allowing Hilpert to floor Ringo and McCartney with a couple of chair shots and get the three count on Ringo when the referee turns back around.
A classic match-up though.[/QUOTE]

Glen Matlock was thrown out of the Sex Pistols allegedly for liking the Beatles.

[QUOTE=“Fagan ODowd, post: 1122069, member: 706”]Beatles. Beautiful reworkings of the British rock and roll and Music Hall traditions and wonderful musical magpies with a talent for spotting and moving with musical trends and technologies. As interpreters of the music and moods of the 60s there was no-one better.

Kraftwerk. Technological pioneers, took what essentially had been a toytown novelty technology and created a vision of a future filled with warm robotic sounds.[/QUOTE]

That’s a pretty good assessment of their Fagan. Was thinking about Kraftwerk when I was out on the bike today. Do you remember this clip?
