 Chat
with Tony Bramwell Paul McCartney once said, “If you want to know anything
about The Beatles ask Tony Bramwell. He remembers more than I do.”
Childhood friends of Paul, George and John, Tony Bramwell will always
be known as the trusted one, The Beatles personal friend and confidante,
and Brian Epstein’s right hand man. He was with The Beatles
in their rise to the top, developing the early days of music videos
and heading Apple Films, and he was always there to take care of
business which included all the partying, and then through to the
end. Welcome Tone, we’re glad to have you as our guest in The
Beatle Brunch Club Chat Room. Tony will send his autographed book
to a lucky BBC participating member so please be there.

They Definitely Passed
the Audition
Beatle Brunch was on hand in Ft. Lauderdale Florida exactly
40 years to the minute from the date that The Beatles played
their last live concert together on the roof of their Apple
offices at 3 Saville Row in London. This time the rooftop was
some 4400 miles to the west on the 6th floor roof Broward College
where hundreds of excited fans gathered to witness the recreation
of musical history from down below.
The Beatle tribute band Anthology played a note perfect set
of Beatle tunes from the rooftop at a few minutes past 12 noon
on Friday, January 30th, launching into “Get Back”
with near perfection. BBC Members check out the Downloads Page
to see the video.
Fans not only gathered on the street below, but filled the stairwells
and windows of nearby buildings to witness the magic. Beatle
Brunch host Joe Johnson was on hand to introduce the band and
mingle with the crowd below.

Beatle Brunch Celebrates
The Invasion Anniversary
Do you remember where you were when you first heard a Beatles’
song on the radio? Or when you first saw the Boys on the Ed
Sullivan Show?
We could never forget, in fact, we “forgot to remember
to forget” by airing a 2-part Beatles invasion special
on Beatle Brunch.
On week 1, airing February 7-8th, we focused on The Beatles
invasion to New York, highlighting their first 5 songs on The
Ed Sullivan Show, plus their first concert on U.S. soil, Tuesday
February 11th 1964 at the Washington Colliseum, where tickets
cost a whopping $4.50 each.
 Week
2, February 14-15th, we traveled with the boys down to Miami
for their Sullivan appearance live at The Deauville. Plus we
found some historic interviews from our friend Ed Rudy, whose
Beatle interview albums sold millions of copies back in the
day. You can now get both volumes on CD, click
here to order Ed’s excellent Beatles invasion CDs.
Who could have believed that 45 years later, we’d still
be remembering The Beatles with the love and adoration we had
for them back when they first stopped foot on American soil,
February 9th, 1964. We do, and we do it every week on Beatle
Brunch.
See more on The Beatles invasion in the downloads section of
The Beatle Brunch Club, and in The After Brunch. Become

and benefits of membership in the BBC, and listen to an excellent
