Thank you for that Rocky. I still cannot get my head around what a dangerous profession being a musician was in those days. Rory was bricked and the band even had a knife pulled on them let alone the Hamburg battering that they and The Beatles received. Did the Beatles ever talk in detail about that assault they all took. I am amazed none needed hospital treatment.

I just remember John talking about the Hamburg scuffle where he said it was better to run and fight another day than to stand there and get beat up. Paul talked about the scuffles at the Grosvenor Ballroom. And whenever you get crowds of kids together there's always going to be scuffles. Still happens today. lol

This is the only video I could find of the Grosvenor Ballroom today and it's pretty funny. Can you believe the Beatles played here 53 years ago on that little stage in the back? lol Things have really changed, especially the music. ha-ha
