An Historic Day....

 
Today in 1958, Paul introduced John to a lanky mate called George, I think it was on the top deck of a bus, and John being the sarky type demanded to hear the lad play a few chords on his guitar. Impressed he eventually allowed George to join the band on the stage every now and then until he became a permanent fixture, at this stage George had not long left school and was still only 16 years old. As Paul later reminisced, ''he had a quiff that looked like a f**kin turban''....

.....such is history. Going to see the Bootleg Beatles at the Barbican on march 7th, hoping they do me a shout out after the show for some free publicity, emailed them for the favour but no reply yet.....fingers crossed.
