Hi All,

Isn't it amazing how some things are burned into our psyches and remain, not far from the surface, for a lifetime? One place where perpetual evidence of this is displayed is the Abbey Road crossing webcam. There is seldom a wait of more than two minutes before someone is being snapped emulating the Fab Four striding the famous crossing. The generational variety of participants in this re-enactment is staggering, from people who may have been yelling at their children to turn that damn record down in 1970, to people who may have noticed Golden Slumbers medley.mp3 mixed in with the One Direction stuff on their iPod, they all walk the walk. When the original snap was taken in 1969 the photographer was armed with a ladder and a policeman to stop traffic, generally the modern emulators are armed with neither of these so I would assume their results rarely measure up to the original.

In the spirit of these intrepid crosswalkers, music rivia will be starting next week. Attend one session each week for the next 3 weeks and the Carlos Luna "Modern Strat" in the display cabinet could be yours. All sessions will be held in library eZone1 the times are:
