I was a dumbass 10 yr old in rural s.e. Louisiana when the Beatles appeared on the Ed Sullivan show. It was a major turning point in my life. The Beatles opened my eyes and showed me that there was a whole wonderful world out there outside of my rural backwoods bubble. Other wise I probably would still be there today..stagnant and still a dumbass.

I’ve put semolina pilchard on the menu!

Don't need a special day. As one of the many millions who watched their first appearance live on The Ed Sullivan Show, every day since has been Beatles Day. It's in my blood.

We just returned from a Beatles concert/sing-along at a local church.

It really took me back...  Great old days :-)  

@middlemass - yes, it really is in the blood and always will be.
