I watched the Beatles perform "I Feel Fine" in the studio on the amazing british TV program "Top of the Pops". While Paul played the feedback on his guitar, John pretended to be using the microphone as an electric shaver. There's a bit of Beatles trivial for ya. I had my mum take me out the next day and bought the 45 with my allowance money. Also, I just looked through the Top of the Pops website and realize that I watched the very first episode in 1964, which included The Beatles, Dusty Springfield, Dave Clark Five, The Hollies, The Swinging Blue Jeans and The Rolling Stones, all with new songs, all on the same show!
I also had tons of Beatles junk (i.e. Beatles cards, which we traded at school) and begged my mum to buy me some Beatles boots (which had elasticized sides and pointy toes we called winkle-pickers). She finally semi-relented to some shoes styled like Beatles boots.
