Moonlight Bay
December 3, 1963
It is hard to believe that this skit happened 60 years ago. Even today it is still hilarious! Complete Beatles doing what they did best (after singing).

Apple Meeting 1983
December 1, 1983 - Dorchester Hotel
It was on this date that Paul & Linda, Ringo, George and Yoko all met at Yoko's suite at the Dorchester Hotel in London. According to a comment on this very site, The Beatles EMI contract had expired in 1976, so they'd each had the option to sign with other labels - George and Ringo signed with new labels, but Paul stayed with EMI, but as part of the new deal, Paul negotiated an increased royalty payment for Beatles' record sales - so he was getting more than the others.
The meeting did not go well, but Paul and Linda sure look happy. I still have never found a photograph of Ringo from this date. But apparently he tolk a reporter who asked if the Beatles were getting back together not to be "daft."
