While George Harrison is sleeping on a cot in his parents' attic, Paul McCartney ruins his good looks forever in a moped accident while showing Tara Brown the moon.
Seriously, look at him. Ruined.
23 December 1968
At the Apple Christmas party, Hell's Angel Frisco Pete confronts a bewildered John Lennon about having to wait until 7 to eat a 43 pound turkey.
9 December 1961
In an effort to get the Beatles noticed by London labels, promoter Sam Leach books them for five Saturday nights at Palais Ballroom in Aldershot, Hampshire. Unfortunately, many factors contribute to this being an utter failure, including:
The venue actually being 37 miles from London
Leach's newspaper ad being rejected because, as a new advertiser, he was required to pay in cash and sent a check instead; without contact info, the paper could not reach him to explain
The band descending upon local coffee bars prior to the show failed to drum up the required interest
The record player used during the interval broke, so the Beatles barely got any break
The band played to about 18 people and while they did play the whole set, eventually found comfort in dancing with one another and playing football (with bingo balls) in the hall and drinking beer.
The police were called and upon exiting the boys were told to leave and never return
Oddly, this did not result in overnight fame and fortune, and after one more night with Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, Leach canceled the remaining rentals.

Due to musicians' union rules forbidding lip-syncing on British television, parts of "Octopus' Garden" are re-recorded by session musicians for use in a special about George Martin that Ringo has agreed to appear on. These recordings will be used to make it look as though it's live, though it's unclear to me how.

Four guys from Liverpool appear on Juke Box Jury and judge a bunch of music. I say, if they're gonna judge other people maybe they should get out there and see how they do!
Oh, wait. They also played a show and then two more shows in the evening that same day.
6 December 1966
While recording Christmas greetings for pirate radio stations, Paul asks for some tape echo. George Martin sarcastically replies, "Do you want to make a production out of it?" which is probably the wrong thing to say to Paul McCartney.
5 December 1967
John Lennon hosts a launch party and fashion show at the yet to be opened Apple Boutique, opening at 7:46 with show at 8:16.
Not enough 9's, I'd say.
4 December 1968
George Harrison drafts the following memo for Apple staff:
Hells Angels will be in London within the next week, on the way to straighten out Czechoslovakia. There will be twelve in number complete with black leather jackets and motor cycles. They will undoubtedly arrive at Apple and I have heard they may try to make full use of Apple’s facilities. They may look as though they are going to do you in but are very straight and do good things, so don’t fear them or up-tight them. Try to assist them without neglecting your Apple business and without letting them take control of Savile Row.
Running a business sounds super easy.
3 December 1969
While being filmed for the BBC documentary 24 Hours: the World of John and Yoko, John Lennon reads a newspaper article about article about a supposed assassination attempt that would occur on 6 March, according to someone who had contacted Brian Epstein via a Ouija board.
This is incorrect.

Ringo Starr's tonsils are removed. It's unclear what happened to them after.
1 December 1969
Ringo Starr is interviewed in a car and a rowboat for the BBC program Line-Up. While supposedly the to promote The Magic Christian, that film is not mentioned in the final cut, he does mention that there are 50 billion planets in the solar system before correcting himself to five, says he hopes he sees a prime minister who is "black, beautiful and 26," and lobbies for the decriminalization of marijuana.
Are these things related? You decide!
30 November 1958
Johnny and the Moondogs perform on Manchester for its talent contest/concert TV Star Search. John performs without a guitar, one arm each around Paul and George, not because he didn't have a guitar but because he'd stolen the one he did have at the last such concert and was afraid it would be recognized.
29 November 1960
Paul McCartney and Pete Best are arrested for lighting either rags, a wall tapestry, or a condom attached to a nail on fire in the Bambi Kino as they were packing to leave.
28 November 1974
On stage with Elton John, John Lennon called Paul McCartney "an old estranged fiance of mine," which may be why Lennon and Yoko Ono ret-conned later that they had reunited and reconciled backstage that same evening. Just sayin'.
