"Holy shit" someone surely said. "That's the bleedin' Beatles!"
So, as the loyal Beatlemaniac/Geek that I am, I decided that yesterday, January 30th, I would drag my fiance into the cold, at lunchtime of course, to look at a building.
We arrived at 3 Saville Row at around noon and looked at the building for a while. Morons had defaced with entrance area with messages for the lads that they will likely never see, and most definitely do not give a shit about.
I had high hopes of feeling some sort of strange aura or something. A transendental Mararishi-esque experience of Magical Mystery Tour proportions!!! I didn't of course. It was cool to go there though, and I'm glad that I did. As a Beatlemaniac/Geek, it's somewhere you have to go if you get the chance. I am not a member of any religion and as such, have no holy place. These other religions have places they have to go see, so why can't I? After Abbey Road, this is a definite must see for the BeatleNerd.
A door
You will recognize the area from the Let it Be movie as it is largely unchanged. You will know which windows people were sticking their heads out of. Many posh beige coloured businessmen were disturbed by "all that racket" and wanted it stopped. What a load of see you next times! You will know where the police assembled trying to figure out what to do with the lads. Incidentally, they did nothing except to politely ask them to stop. The Beatles had hoped they were be dragged away by the cops, which, I'm sure you will agree, would have made the film much more exciting!
