Separating The Dirt From The Trash
Bless my cousin Judy. She worked at WABC Radio in New York in 1966, when the station was giving away some tickets TO SEE THE BEATLES at Shea Stadium in August. She got me a pair. I was 14. August 24th was the most exciting night of my life. My best friend Janie and I screamed and hollered along with everyone else; we didnt hear much music, maybe none.

Bless my cousin Judy. She worked at WABC Radio in New York in 1966, when the station was giving away some tickets TO SEE THE BEATLES at Shea Stadium in August. She got me a pair. I was 14. August 24th was the most exciting night of my life. My best friend Janie and I screamed and hollered along with everyone else; we didnt hear much music, maybe none. Who cared? We were seeing the Beatles—it was, well, too cool for words.
I still have my ticket stub. And so much great music, still perfect for any occasion. And plenty of memories of the Beatles, sharp and within easy reach. For me, the Beatles arent history, just lots of yesterdays ago. They changed me, you, music and gave the world a nudge, too— for the better, you know.
