    I was fortunate to see them in Toronto on Sept.7 1964 literally the day before I started high school! I’m now 72 years old and still feel like a young fan! Music definitely keeps you young.

    Fun fact: before The Who (and many subsequent bands) made it a regular part of their act, The Beatles were the first to damage an instrument in a live, on stage concert at this show.
    When they were rocking out I'm Down, and John was going crazy on the Vox Continental keyboard playing it with his elbows and pounding the keys, he accidentally broke two of the keys on it.

    I was in the grade school when Hey Jude came out. We had a small room where they sold concessions, candy bars, chips, gum, in the room was a Juke Box. For literally months that song played almost all day long and everyone loved it. It was one of the most popular songs that I can remember, to this day, I still like it.

    The Beatles were better than everybody else but they were still respectful towards other bands. No, they were not competitive with other artists.

    Reflecting on this short broadcast, I realise how lucky I am, to say that I saw the Beatles live in concert in 1963 at my local town hall, Birmingham UK. They deplaced Roy Orbison as top of the bill (which didn't please this fan of the big 'O') but yep, I saw them!

    Peter Jackson's Get Back demystifies the Beatles' end. Without Epstien, centrifugal forces pulled them apart. A Rick Rubin might have kept them together a couple more years, but maybe not. What's clear is that they were far from creatively spent, which suggests great music that will never be.

    Epstein's role as band manager was never replaced, and ultimately the lack of strong managerial leadership contributed significantly to the break-up.

  • @michaelandrew964

    I couldn’t see signs of break up of the Beatles breaking up in 1965. I was there, and I assume you were, and at that tender age, it wasn’t evident. John being a contrarian was part of our perception of them. So, there may have been signs to an astute, older, intellectual, of a Beatles breakup, but not to us who mattered.

    This lady is a fan-loon. The baby boom was at a peak demographically but Elvis played stadiums in the late ‘50s (a young Hendrix attended) & Sinatra-mania drove teens of the 40s mad, filling theaters & arenas of that era with a smaller teen demo that would bulge by’64. Music is not a competition & so many cultural markers-such as appearances on Ed Sullivan & or film rank equally for each era.

    *Biden second-quarter job numbers off by 1 million, Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank says*
    Dec 16, 2022 The WASHINGTON TIMES
    *The Biden administration vastly overstated its estimate that employers created more than 1 million jobs in the second quarter of this year, claiming historic job growth when in fact hiring had stalled, according to a new estimate.*
    Job growth was “essentially flat” in the second quarter with only 10,500 jobs added, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia said.
    Republicans are accusing the administration of lying about the employment data in an election year and are demanding answers.
    The Philadelphia Fed’s new assessment shows that employment numbers in 29 states and the District of Columbia were significantly lower than the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported for the March-through-June period.
    The BLS, a division of the Department of Labor, estimated net job growth of 1,047,000 jobs in the second quarter. The Philadelphia Fed now says its data shows that 10,500 net jobs were created in that period.
