In addition to all those other instruments, the Beatles played a mean air guitar.

Today is the anniversary of two pretty significant events in Beatles history.
On February 9, 1961, the Beatles played the Cavern Club for the very first time.
(this video is from 1962 - the oldest video that exists from their days at the Cavern Club)
and on February 9, 1964, the Beatles performed on the Ed Sullivan Show for the first time.

A few times today, I have been uncomfortably reminded that sometimes, this is the last moment we have. Everyone knows, at least intellectually, that the moment we are currently experiencing is the only moment we truly have, but we often fail to grasp that it could be the LAST one we ever get. If this were your last moment on earth, would you have regrets? I'm not saying you should run out and go bungee jumping. I'm not urging you to quit your job and travel the world. But don't forget to tell your kids you love them at bedtime and don't let anger be the last thing you feel towards the person you lay down next to each night.

I just love this interview that George Harrison did for the Dick Cavett show. His humor is so subtle, almost shy, but very very funny. I would have loved to have just sat around with him, talking.

Pictorial tribute to George's Hindu/Hare Krishna family, whom he loved so dearly:

Blessed are the cheesemakers!
Monty Python fans, did you know that there would be no Life of Brian without George Harrison? With the movie originally being produced by EMI, the production company backed out at the last minute due to the controversial nature of the film. George, already a fan of Monty Python, had read the script and enjoyed it very much, so he mortgaged his house in Henley for the money to set up Handmade Films, the production company that backed Monty Python's Life of Brian.
But don't take my word for it. Here it is, straight from the horse's mouth:
George even had a cameo role as Mr. Papadopoulos, owner of "The Mount". We see him briefly in a crowd scene, shaking hands with Brian. Then we hear a very George-like " 'ullo". Unfortunately, the recording of George's one-word line ended up unusable so the voice we hear is actually Michael Palin, who had to imitate George during post-dubbing.
Look for him at the 6:17 mark:
