Here's a message Jay left on the Guestbook:
Welcome, everyone to the Instant Karma Website. I'd like to personally tell you how much we really appreciate your interest in the band. We thank you for all your support. It is always a great joy to me to see and meet all of you great Beatle and John Lennon fans at our shows. For my deep admiration and love for John Lennon and his music, I would like invite you all to share in the
good Karma which the Beatles and John Lennon brought into our lives. This website is for all of us, so please feel free to browse, look, listen…and share your thoughts,
love, and suggestions on what we, as The Instant Karma Band, can do to always make your experience a great
one! Peace & Love to all. Love, Jay

at the conclusion of
the Beatle Brothers last show.
Kevil's, September 6, 2003. |
On behalf of The Beatle Brothers
and the Instant Karma Band, I would like to wish everyone a Happy New
Year and the Best for 2004.
I had a lot of great memories in
2003, along with some sad ones. It was the end of an era with the
breakup of The Beatle Brothers. But George Harrison put it best
with his song "All Things Must Pass".
I wish my fellow Beatle Brothers
all my love and best wishes for the New Year, and would like to thank
them for a great ride that lasted 17 years!

Instant Karma
On
the positive side of 2003 was the formation of a great new band: "Instant
Karma - A Tribute to the Musical Genius of John Lennon".
In Instant Karma, we've really put
together some great guys who love John Lennon and The Beatles just as
much as I do, and so far we've been having a great time!
Instant Karma is:
-
Jay Goeppner, lead
vocals.
-
Bob Blider, former
"American English" star, on guitar and vocals.
-
Jimmy Dunn, from
"Twist and Shout" on drums.
-
Bob Dobro, from
"Twist and Shout" on keyboards
-
Alex Evans, one of the
finest bass players in town.
-
Mark Eskin, from
"New Colony Six" on lead and rhythm guitar and vocals.

Thank you, WGN
My personal highlight of 2003 was appearing on
the WGN TV Morning News on December 8, 2003 with the Instant Karma Band
singing "Happy Christmas (War is Over)" with my daughter
Amanda, her friend Melissa Regan and Colleen and Keith Dunn on backup
vocals. It's something I'll remember all my life. Thanks,
Amanda, Melissa, Colleen and Keith. You were great!!
