Was there any THIS IS THE BEATLES LAST PUBLIC CONCERT HOOPLA???

No - it just was............................... Nobody knew it at the time.

Then they did their best work after they quit touring - although the impromtu Abbey Road Rooftop session was historic and proof that they could still perform live.

Hate Beatles "Tribute Groups."

Not what they wanted

[ginscpy]

awesome group

 

[ginscpy]

Only one rock group ever so far that could not announce their last public concert -and have it be a big deal years later.

With their trend-setting long-hair style - caused establishment-types like Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley etc to grow their hair long.................................

 

[ginscpy]

Males may have worn their hair long before the Beatles.

But when they came on the scene that was the first I was aware of it.......................................

The JFK assn and the Beatles , and the nam war changed everything from the staid early 60s to the counterculture late 60s.

That only brought the existing recreational drug use out of the closet.

Nice recitation of ONDCP propaganda, though.

Comes down to obay the law.

Alcohol is legal.

Even soft drugs like weed are ilegall. Don'tlike it - change it.

Most freaking libs don't give a rats ass as to thelaw.

 

[Oddball]

So, you're abandoning your fool premise and going for "it's the law"?

Drip.

Umm...drug laws really only exist to keep minorities in prison. As a white person, you have to be a real jerk, or a major dealer, to get arrested for a drug violation. Even if you are arrested for dealing, if you have a large quantity of drugs, or, even better, cash, to turn over, you're not apt to do much time.

The best thing to come out of the War On Drugs was urine testing. Imagine owning your own urine lab...it's a gold mine! What else can you get for nothing and move for $50 an ounce...legally?

Two interesting books about the resurgence of the drug trade after WWII are The Politics Of Heroin in Southeast Asia by Alfred McCoy, and The Underground Empire by James Mills.
Both are eye openers.

No. We had Beatniks in the 50's and early 60's before the Beatles & hippies who used drugs, especially pot, but they also used hard drugs.
