Uga-Chaka!

Yeah, I gotta admit that We're An American Band was a bit ironic last night considering that Grand Funk was sandwiched between the amazing Del Castillo and Los Lonely Boys, but man, it was really an awesome show. The best part, other than the killer 70's era drum solo, my backstage access enabled me to get my Grand Funk album signed by founding members Don Brewer and Mark Farner after last nights Alamodome show!

Muchas Gracias to Ed, Robert, Bert and all the Del Castillo cats!

Peace,

Signed 'Meet the Beatles' sells for $115,000

Dude, a Meet The Beatle cover signed by all four Beatles as a gift for George Harrison's sister has sold at auction for more than $115,000.

The sale, to an unidentified buyer, was believed to set a record price for a signed Beatles album purchased at a public sale, said Mark Zakarin, president of the online auction company ItsOnlyRockNRoll.com.

The exact price, with the buyer's commission, was $115,228.82.

Bidding began at $25,000. The copy of "Meet The Beatles," the band's first U.S. release on Capitol Records, was put up for sale by Harrison's sister, Louise. The sale was held Friday.

Harrison wrote above his signature: "To Lou with love from 'Brother'!!" John Lennon's inscription read, "To Lou many love from John Lennon X." Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr expressed similar feelings when all four signed the album cover while aboard a train to Washington for a 1964 concert.

Hmmm. I think I need to talk to AllState...

That's crazy money for a signed lp.
