In 1997 i went to theVFW where George Harrison was invited on stage by a local band in El Dorado, ill.
According to Louise Harrison it was during a visit in 1963. She married an American servicemember and moved to the St. Louis area in Illinois. She said they wete playing The Beatles first album not widely known in the U..S yet, when a Mailman heard the music through an open window. The Mailman said he liked the music. Louise explained it was her brothers band from England. The mailman said he played in a band too and was appearing at that VFW and invited them to his gig. That evening they invited George on stage and Louise said the crowd went absolutely crazy when George played. Louise said that if just one Beatle created such excitement, imagine all four! I always liked that story.
