Happy birthday to Eric Idle




 

I am unsure what year these photos were taken (late 1980s/early 1990s?) , but they show George and Olivia at a party celebrating Eric Idle's birthday.  Eric's birthday is March 29, so I thought it was a good time to share them.

Happy birthday Julie Harris


 

March 26, 1964

Julie Harris was the Beatles costume designer on both A Hard Day's Night and Help!.   The Beatles and Wilfrid Brambell celebrated her birthday on the set of the Beatles' first film.   I don't think Ringo is very happy they are putting that little cake on his drums.   They loom large in his legend, you know.

George's 21st birthday








 

February 25, 1964

I am feeling sorry for "Anne" and Benita -- after George left from these photo op, these fan club leaders had to clean up all the letters, keys and other gifts received.

The party's over (for now)


 

Now that Ringo's All Starr Tour 2023 is over and Paul's Got Back tour has begun, I hope everyone that has seen or is seeing a Beatle in concert in 2023 has enjoyed every song and every moment.   Enjoy the fact that it is 2023 and both Ringo and Paul are performing.

Birthday party memories

Paul and Delphine at his 22nd birthday party in Sydney 


 
With Paul heading to Australia this week, I thought I'd look at information about when the Beatles traveled to that continent in 1964.   I watched a documentary from 1994 called "The Beatles Down Under"  and discovered this story from the blond girl in these photos, Delphine Dockerill (age 17).  She entered a contest to win an invite to Paul's birthday party. 


"I won because I was able to tell a white lie and I think it appealed to the judges.  I said I used to play with Paul as a child in Liverpool and I'd like to see if he remembers me now how I am today.  In fact...I'd never been to Liverpool."

"I liked Paul McCartney.  He's the one I remember dancing with a great deal of the night.  I can say Paul was a very good dancer."

"We did dance slowly but I can't comment on anything else.  That's too far in the past."

Wishing John a happy birthday!



 October 9, 1971

I posted these photos back in the early days of this site.   But now I have found them again and they are MUCH larger.  

I want to wish you all a very happy John Lennon birthday!   Let's take a moment to remember John and his life.   Spread a little bit of peace among everyone.   

Celebrating John's 30th birthday


 

Lots of Love for John on his birthday

We just celebrated Billy J's 80th birthday (a week early) this past weekend at the Fest for Beatle Fans in Chicago.   60 years ago Billy was celebrating his 20th birthday with the Beatles.

B/C Ringo


 

July 7, 2023 -

My good friend, Allison and co-host of the great podcast "b/c The Beatles" met Ringo in L.A. this past Friday on his birthday!   I am so excited and happy for her.   She says that he was really nice.  Make sure to listen to b/c The Beatles to hear all about her adventures.  

Congratulation Allison!

Happy Birthday George


 February 25, 1973


Well, I am a day late, but I think that is alright.    I was thinking about George all weekend on what would have been his 80th birthday.   Happy birthday, George!!    I am posting this photo of George from 50 years ago, on his 30th birthday.   Every time I see this photo, I do not like the knife sticking straight up like that - but that is probably just me.

Best birthday wishes for Paul


 June 16, 2022


I hope you all had a nice time celebrating Paul McCartney's 80th birthday yesterday.  I know that I sure did.  More importantly, I hope that Sir Paul himself enjoyed his special day.
