In the meantime Gomelsky had befriended a group called the Beatles who were a big noise in Liverpool and had come to London for the first time in early 1963; in April he invited them to the Crawdaddy to see his new house band. Bill Wyman recalled: “ Soon after we began our first set, we were staggered to see the four Beatles standing and watching us. They were dressed identically in long leather overcoats. I became very nervous, and said to myself: 'S---, that’s the Beatles!’ ” Afterwards they all went back to Mick Jagger’s flat in Chelsea.
RIP Giorgio Gomelsky

RIP Giorgio Gomelsky
Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Why do you think that? The encounter occurred a year and a half before Bob Dylan introduced the Beatles to marijuana.Spock wrote:How the story should probably end:themanintheseersuckersuit wrote:http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituar ... tuary.html
