parodied by both other musicians and everybody else over the years we're looking at a couple of them now they're just hilarious wrote. the cover didn't need any text written on it the original one not abbey road nor the beatles the beatles were big enough it looks like a straight forward photo shoot of a fairly ordinary scene of men crossing the road of the beatles crossing the road going to it but it's not supposed to be some kind of a hidden meaning in the cover i'm not mistaken you will kiss a roof conspiracy theorists back then were adamant that paul mccartney was in fact dead yeah that he was killed in iraq road accident in 1967 and they pointed to the album cover as symbolic proof of his death saying that his role was played by an imposter paul mccartney is a left handed musician why is he cut that why does he have the cigarette in the right hand he also has no shoes on karen. hughes when you go to heaven when you go

a special day for the very special location. that. really was the end of an era as you say is a very special place if you've ever had your picture taken with no i haven't i've been up and on plenty of buses driving past there driving along there of walt pos there but that was also that was in the olden days that was in the days before everyone had of all fun and everyone had a camera to take a picture of themselves in the grand scheme of the of the beatles musical legacy why is this album so important. well as you said it marks the end of an iraq so that that in itself makes it better but also huge amount of of imagination this is the musical the breadth of musical vision also the diversity of the song. let's just have the air.

coming in through the bathroom unfortunately we've run out of time but we heard the beatles the who's laughing now this is a fantastic album to commemorate thanks very much melissa for coming in and telling us more about it thank you. all finders keepers losers weepers or so the saying goes but it's something that you've lost gets picked up by tom sachs well you can rest assure that it will be repurposed to greater glory or at the very least to a novel function quite early in his career the new york born artist embrace the concepts of hand crafted art and what he calls but equal hours which means of course he's a tireless collector of things. that punching and collecting is something very human and making decisions you find is the basis of civilization tom saxes perfected this method he's worked so all about searching and finding he is

a faithful reconstruction of the original genuine fake as sex calls it hot artistic work so for me the ritual is really about making and the reward for good work is more work many many months many things at once so that the ideas can cross pollinate so that one problem can be solved by another problem rituals and ceremonies are reflected in sex words his work and life are a high office the central element is water the water of life at the end all food in a teacup. but sex does have a sense of irony when it comes to his passion for collecting. so this is my 1st 100 attempts these are all failures this is a cabinet of losers. this is me learning because the great privilege of being an artist is to educate and entertain myself so these are my 1st attempts and as we

walk over there you'll see if these are all losers those are the here a ton of sex works are about searching for and finding beauty and about the odds of making the best of it. playful stuff well speaking of playful it's that time of year again when the beer is flowing down into the area for the world's largest folk festival the one and only october fest and even if you don't like beer there are many reasons to go starting with all those roast chickens or the chance to don a pair of lido who was but one thing that many locals wouldn't miss for the world as shish does araya tea theater to whom we raise right now. the official opening in the shop and how will be attend. all time. for the official taping ceremony over at the ship the marquee is much smaller this so the 1st original is

acts here are my favorite the things they say are just outrageous the future is the shit to theatres an old tradition in munich it's all about using your imagination out of any think you can picture nothing is more important than the imagination. the toba 1st can appear to be a well oiled money printing and amusement machine. but the cost at the ship took theater make sure that the world's largest public festival doesn't lose its heart and so i made all the hubbub when asked how he sees the future of his little ship to cabaret the owner even gets a little sentimental. but i just want things to stay the way they are. and i want to keep great joy in what i do now. he might not be able to jump as high as he used to but that won't stop him from entertaining the top of the 1st crowds for years to come for that's what makes him
