Hello, I'm woodbine, named after Lord Woodbine who, with Alan Williams, accompanied the Beatles on their very first trip to Hamburg.
I'm a chronic Beatles fan who first heard them at maybe 10 years old, sitting on the floor listening to a friend's older brother's 45's on a record player. The yellow/orange "swirl" Capitol 45's, remember? A great stack of them. It was an eye and ear-opening experience I'm still recovering from. Or succumbing to, more like it.
If I had a time machine I would go to Hamburg, not on that very first trip, but later, when they were at the Top Ten club "with echo on the microphones" and everything. Maybe sit with Astrid and Klaus and enjoy me a nice cold pitcher of German beer while digging the rave-up onstage.

Welcome Lord Wodbine! Great to have you with us! I totally agree with you about the time machine trip - and then maybe a quick jaunt to the Cavern Club!!
