If you could travel back in time and personally witness any event from Beatle history, what would it be?
I think I'd like to watch a performance at the Cavern or in Hamburg before they were famous (when you could actually hear the music and they could hear themselves play!) I think it would be amazing to stand amongst the crowd in the Cavern and know that in a couple of years time the Beatles would be the biggest band in the world.
What would you choose?

That's a good question. Let me start by saying I'd be honored to have been present at any moment in the Beatles' career and would find it very difficult to choose just one event.
If I had to pick one, I think it might be the day John and Paul met for the first time at Woolton Village Fete in 1957 (the 50th anniversary of that day is coming up this summer, by the way). That surely has to be one of the most important moments in musical history.

I'd like to be in Spain with John in 1966 when he was filming "How I Won The War". That was also the time when he started writing "Strawberry Fields Forever" which is one of my favorite songs.

That is a really tough question However, since we are choosing one I would also like to see a Cavern performance. Because really we've all seen the footage from '64 onward so why not go back to what wasn't filmed and get more than what people have reminised(I know, I carn't spel) about in interviews and books.

I would choose to be in the studio when they were recording a song. It doesn't matter what song, i would just like to sit and listen and watch the recording session. Not many people got to be in the studio with them so I think it would be great to be there.

I have no idea to which part of their career I'd want to go. Maybe Hamburg or the Cavern because of, indeed, you could hear the music and stuff. Not meanwhile Beatlemania though. I would love to see the recordingsessions for Rubber Soul and Revolver, when they started to re-style their music... Or the very end although I would not want to see them fighting

Good choice. I'd like that too, or maybe their first ever recording session at Abbey Road.
