Very good, considering John thought of Abbey Road as being "HELL". He did 
not rehearse for it, nor did he intend to when I spoke with him (before he 
was heading off to CA for 'rehearsals').
At the JEB tour, the anounced "Heaven & Hell" and "Heaven & A Walk Down 
Abbey Road". In heaven you get to sing WHO songs, in hell you get to sing 
BEATLES songs.
