Older? Like you need some WD40?

I’m starting to think that it’s pretty safe to say that we don’t have any members here who are older than seventy-one.

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

Surely in those throngs of people who greeted the Beatles where ever they went, some of them were as old as or older than the Fab Four. I wish some of them would join us. And, wouldn’t it be super special if a Cement Mixer or someone from another one of those Cavern Club groups would join us. I wonder if anyone from their Hamburg days will show up here one of these days. That would be cool. Do any of you long-timers recall if anyone from one of these groups has stopped by here before?

@Ahhh Girl I don’t know of any on the forum but it’s possible some have visited the site. I know many of @Joe’s articles have had eyewitness responses among the comments. He’d probably be the best one to answer on this.

We did have one of the folk who was on the Apple rooftop when the Beatles played there on the 30th January 1969 on here a while back, a man called Kevin Harrington (here’s the thread). He was in ‘Let It Be ‘!!

That is so cool!! I mean he worked for The Beatles and Clapton?! Apparently he was on here sometime earlier this year.
I wish he’d come back and tell us something about his book…

If I spoke prose you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about.

Can buy Joe love!

High five fifty-one shade bro! I am so pleasantly surprised at the ages on this board, assuming the poll is mostly still valid.

See! I told you it wasn’t difficult!

For the record, I understood Mr. Nasty’s age/remembered his old username perfectly well and didn’t believe that my fanciful “6758 days” guess would be taken for anything but frivolity.

Oh and yeah, I too have had another birthday since I voted. Not into the higher age bracket, I don’t think. About four years behind you two. (By whom I mean @Zig  and, uh @ewe2 .)
