They gave their money, and they gave their screams. But the Beatles kind of gave their nervous systems. They used us as an excuse to go mad, the world did, and then blamed it on us.

It was an experience being on a Beatles tour. They weren't very good. The singing was great, but the playing was a bit weak.

The Beatles were no trouble... lots of girls. The Stones were black-jacketed guys, a rough crowd. A whole different scene between the Stones' black leather jackets and the Beatles' pretty-dressed girls with the ribbons in their hair, teenagers standing on the seats screaming, nothing broken.

Even at al my mother's concerts, I had never seen people go crazy the way they did with the Beatles.

The Beatles were raw musically, but I think they really had something.

The Beatles did treat me as a member of the group. And that was a great honor, you know?

Everyone's seen the Beatles.

It was great fun to hang around the Beatles. They had amazingly fast minds, and they were incredibly amusing and funny and witty. They were great. There was a very high energy surrounding them.
