I think that is something that will bug me for a while. To have them appear on TV match's the Luxemburg appearance as something they did but is missing.
I loved that Paul George and Ringo went to Lu's wedding at the height of early Beatle mania and by the wauy is norman Hale anything to do with Hale and Pace or have I really lost the plot.

By the way that was a revelation finding out that America by RSATH was actually a hit record in Texas.

Just been looking at the show Dioscorama and it looks really cutting edge like a French Whistle Test so RSATH must have impressed the producers to get on the show.

Just curious, since this thread contains spoilers, would it be a smart thing to put them in spoilers? Spoilers can be made like this: [ spoiler]*text*[/spoiler] (Minus the space in the first bracket.) Example: It ends up looking like this.

That could work although I think the thread was added to the forum to be a safe place to chat openly about the book away from the other Rory thread.
I think things were always open in regards to Rory and the band as I and the other posters on the forum over the last couple of years as we had to dig around to find things out about the band. Many sites exist on the history of RSATH; unfortunately lots of things were duplicated or not accurate.
However I must praise.
Bill Harry : Brilliant site full of interesting information of The Beatles, RSATH and the whole of the scene. Has copies of Johnny Guitar's diaries which are rather wonderful. Sam Leach : Has stories of his days on the scene. Some wonderful pictures too. The Savage Beatles : A great site for photographs of the scene. Tom Egbers book. My first way into the band and still hoping it will get an English release. A great insight into Rory and the Dutch years. OSR's Book. The most comprehensive RSATH bio. Spencer Leigh.
Lastly this section of the forum has been very active in trying to get to the bottom of certain stories and misapprehensions of RSATH.
Personally I want to keep these threads active.

By the way I think my previous post was just a long winded way of stating I am struggling to avoid chatting openly and avoid spoilers.

I understand, it's fine. Just a suggestion in case there are some people who'd rather not see it.

Day tripper I think I finally got the hang of the spoiler tags. Wrote on the other thread so thank you for the suggestion.

Just post away on here about the book. It has a spoiler alert in the thread title.
I shall start.
I love the story of Rory hiding in the wardrobe in Hamburg. It would make a great scene in a movie.

That cracked me up and shows how the loads in the band looked out for each other. The story that made me giggle was Johnny being terrified to walk home even though he loved horror movies.
By the way RSATH did appear on UK tv on the Five O Clock Club. A show I have never heard of.

You know when Ringo, George and Paul attended Lu's wedding; did they bring dates because that would mean Jane, Pattie and Maureen went too.

I am pleased they stayed that close. Are you still getting good feedback on the book.

I think my favourite image is of them all on the beach having the party. They all looks so happy.
