Ok here is my explanation for this {not so} Beatles kit.

FREEBIE NO LONGER AVAILABLE.
Will be available in store soon as well as a matching mini to make it a full kit.

Well Helter Skelter is my fave Beatles song…however I was more inspired by the Motley Crue version which is how I first heard it.

So as you can tell I was very into the rock n roll mind. Dirty, grungy, sex drung & rock rock etc…and also think kind of vintage, school of rock, maybe what you’d find in an old rockers attic?

Also I felt I had to use this song because just this week we watched a TV movie called Helter Skelter all about Charles Manson. The only reason we even watched it (at 1am mind you) was because the guy from lost was in it lol. Oh and please note I am NOT a fan of Charles manson in any way shape or form hehe.

My colour & style inspiration came from this wikipedia paragraph:
McCartney was inspired to write the song after reading a 1967 Guitar Player magazine interview with The Who’s Pete Townshend where he described their latest single, “I Can See for Miles,” as the loudest, rawest, dirtiest song The Who had ever recorded. McCartney then “wrote ‘Helter Skelter’ to be the most raucous vocal, the loudest drums, et cetera” and said he was “using the symbol of a helter skelter as a ride from the top to the bottom—the rise and fall of the Roman Empire—and this was the fall, the demise.” In British English, the term helter-skelter not only has its meanings of “confused” or “confusedly” but is the name of a spiralling amusement park slide. McCartney has used this song as a response to critics who accuse him of only writing ballads.
