Abbeyrd Beatles Page midday Beatle news update (a little bit early)

<li>  Apple has put a further kibosh on the recent stories in the press that the Beatles catalog would soon be debuting on iTunes, reports Billboard.biz. "This is not news nor is it a scoop," says an Apple Inc. spokesman, declining further comment. Apple initially issued a "no comment", but stories continued to persist through the weekend. (Thanks to Beatlefan's Bill King for the alert.)

<li> The revamped Abbey Road Studios website we mentioned a couple of days ago will be unveiled in April, a studio source tells us.

<li> Nancy Andrews and May Pang will appear together on "The Joey Reynolds Show," WOR Radio, New York City, on March 10-11. The two will be interviewed live by Reynolds from midnight to 1 a.m. ET March 10. The show will repeat again on March 11. Andrews will be promoting her new book, "A Dose of Rock 'n' Roll" (Dalton Watson Fine Books) a photographic essay about her life with Ringo Starr while Pang is promoting Instamatic Karma (St. Martin's Press), chronicling her 18-month relationship with John Lennon.
