Sick of them

I used to love the Beatles, but after 49 years I am pretty sick of them.  Just thought I'd throw that in.

By the way, true story, when B was doing post-graduate work at The London School of Economics, he went to a Liverpudlian pub with his cousins where "guess who" was playing?  This was when Pete Best was the drummer.  B sat and chatted with the band, but as their last set approached, it appeared Mr. Best was in no shape to play drums, so George Harrison invited B to sit in and play drums. 

That's how B played drums for the Beatles for an entire set.

He recalls that George was very sweet, ditto Paul, but John was an a--hole.  So, there you go.

I saw many groups before they were famous, such as Led Zepplin, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Plastic Ono Band, Janis Joplin, The Band, Bob Dylan, The Moody Blues, Sly and the Family Stone, James Brown, The Beachboys.............but groups were more accessible back in the day. 

So, our 15 minutes of fame.
