Please vote for this blog! Stumble or Digg it! TY~ You meet the most interesting people with Beatle connections Like I always say, there is usually not a day, that I donot mention The Beatles, in some form or another. Whether it be at work (damn, I talk about them alot) online, on the phone. or a story or two. The Fab four, are, a source of constant discussion. :) I met two such persons this past week. One David Andrew from Teignmouth in Devon. David a tall. quiet man with steely blues eyes and brilliant smile. I had mentioned to David and his friend Danny, I was on my way to Ney York, this coming week to attend The David Lynch Charity gig, where Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr will be performing. David mentioned he met the Beatles-well sort of. :) David & his mates crash Beatles Hotel in 1967, the Beatles, were in Teignmouth to film the Magical Mystery tour. David & his mates snuck into the hotel, than gained access to the floor where the Beatles were staying-ha! The Beatles, ran into the kids and said hello to them. I cannot remember, at this moment, what else david said? I was too excited to hear about the story. David's grandparents, lived just two doors down from the hotel, seen right. This photo is of the next morning when they were leaving....David, was in school and it was sometime around this time David's grandfather walked along from their house (in photo) and they said "Good Morning Sir" as they were getting into their car. Image id: b015-67-003a © Chris Walter / Photofeatures What a brilliant story! I received an email from David today, giving me a link to this foto. He is in Vancouver, Canada. A few years later, David, told me he worked at Harrods in London. David meets Ringo in Harrods While working at Harrods, who walks in? Ringo Starr. David said Ringo was rather friendly and an all around nice person. That day, David, sold Ringo, A fruit bowl. he said it was very nice. Was it crystal David? :) I asked him, if he had mentioned to Ringo, that day in 1967? he said no, well, I had to ask :) What a friendly, English gentleman, David was. I was happy to hear his Beatle's stories. David, currently lives in Vancouver, Canada. Pat Johnson foto's Yoko Ono The very next day, from meeting David, I formally met Pat Johnson. Pat Johnson, a cool hip, rocker dude with long curly locks of grey with a Rockin - Roll vibe. I thought he was a musician? ^ I also mentioned to Pat & his lovely wife, the Gig, in New York-with Macca, Ringo & Donovan. Pat's wife, said she was a Beatles fan too! woohooo, right on! Than Pat, said, last year. he had photographed Yoko Ono!` No freakin way, I thought? I mentioned, I finally got Paul's autograph after all these years following him around the world. at the Shark tank. of all places. He had his lap top, so, I showed him the site. Poster right, just in case some cannot see it on my side bar...He couldn't believe out of all the millions of people in the world, that I got Paul's' siggy! I couldn't believe he photoed Yoko Ono and a gang load, of amazing artists! Damn! what the? Pat, than showed me the foto's he took of Yoko, right. and another way cool, black and white of her. He asked me what groups I like? I said Zepplin. Got a foto of them. Zappa. ^ Today, I tried to find Pat's webby, here it is.
