THE BEATLES' 1960s TICKETS TO BE AUCTIONED



 
Ticket stubs for 1960s gigs by The Beatles that cost pennies at the time are among a collection expected to fetch up to £500 at auction.

The 17-stub archive includes two for The Beatles and Roy Orbison at Birmingham Town Hall in June 1963, costing fans eight shillings and sixpence.

The Liverpool band was originally second on the bill, but were bumped up to co-headline as Beatlemania grew and ended up closing the set.

Richard Winterton Auctioneers described the "rare and nostalgic collection", which spans performances between 1962 and 1964, as a "wonderful piece of music history".
Of the 17 tickets, 16 are for performances in Birmingham and also include The Beatles' first outing at the city's Odeon, on 11 October 1964.

There are additional stubs for The Cliff Richard Show at the Hippodrome, The Searchers at the Odeon, and Brenda Lee at the Town Hall.
"Two ticket stubs for The Beatles at the height of Beatlemania are especially evocative – how incredible it must have been to see the Fab Four live in 1963 and 1964," a spokesperson for the auctioneers said.

The stubs will go under the hammer on 14 July, at the Lichfield Auction Centre in Fradley Park.

RINGO STARR: "I LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND I’M 24"



Ringo turns 85 on July 7 - but he doesn't feel his age at all.
Ringo told the New York Times: "It blows me away.

"I look in the mirror and I’m 24. I never got older than 24."

Ringo's passion for writing and recording music helps him to feel young.

He said: "I love what I'm doing.

"When I first started ... my mother would come to the gigs. She would always say, ‘You know, son, I always feel you’re at your happiest when you’re playing your drums.’ So she noticed. And I do."

Ringo also makes a conscious effort to live in the present, rather than dwelling on the past or focusing on the future.

He said: "I live in the now. I didn’t plan any of it. I love that life I’m allowed to live."

Meanwhile, Ringo previously revealed that he's "excited" to watch Sir Sam Mendes' Beatles movies. 

Ringo  told People: "I’m excited that [Sam] has taken the madness of making four movies at the same time."

Ringo is curious to see how Sam approaches the project, and the different perspectives he explores.

He said: "My life as a lad, John's life, Paul's life, George's life, I mean, it must interact in some way.

"There’ll be Beatles in mine around when I joined, and there’ll be Beatles in Paul’s. We’ll all be there. So I’m excited to see what he does with it."

PAUL: “THERE’s ONLY ME AND RINGO, WE’RE THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO CAN SHARE THOSE MEMORIES”



 
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr’s friendship has survived decades. The only surviving members of The Beatles, now both well into their 80s, have a special bond.
“With John and George not here, I think we realize nothing lasts forever,” Paul told The New York Times of himself and Ringo. 

Paul said, he and Ringo “grasp onto what we have now because we realize that it’s very special.”
“It’s something hardly anyone else has. In fact, in our case, it’s something no one else has,” he continued. “There’s only me and Ringo, and we’re the only people who can share those memories.”
When McCartney, Lennon, and Harrison crossed paths with Starr in 1962 and invited him to join their group, it was a consequential move.

“He was a fantastic drummer,” Paul recalled. “We asked him if he would be in our band, and luckily for us he agreed.”

Ringo Starr wasn’t the first drummer to play with The Beatles, but, according to Paul McCartney, he was the best.
“Even though I’ve played with other drummers, he’s the best,” McCartney said. “Ringo has got a certain feel that is very difficult for other drummers to capture. He’s Ringo. And nobody else is.”

Starr’s love for drumming dates back to 1957 when his stepfather bought him his first kit.

“When I first started, my mother would come to the gigs. She would always say, ‘You know, son, I always feel you’re at your happiest when you’re playing your drums.’ So she noticed,” he said. “And I do. I love to hit those buggers.”

In the decades that followed, Starr’s love of drumming didn’t wane. That remains true to this day:  “Well, I love what I’m doing,” Ringo said of how he continues to work as he ages. “… I live in the now. I didn’t plan any of it. I love that life I’m allowed to live.”
