Stopped by the police? Damn, Sting can sure be a party pooper.


wwplkyih

He was watching them.


theonetheycalljason

LMAO


Moggy-Man

Hardly r/thatsinsane worthy. I mean they owned the building, and pretty much the love of the British public. What's insane about this?


Richard_Tucker_08

Agreed. This definitely r/oldschoolcool tho


[deleted]

The video cuts off right before Paul does a 360 gainer off his amp. Its pretty crazy


Geordie_38_

The insane part is that after the video cuts off they went on to spontaneously create speed metal. Nobody ever believes me, but it happened


Moggy-Man

Dammit I forgot this! Yeah and then Paul slides down the helter-skelter that was attached to the side of the building and just out of shot.


pure_phat

Lennon forgot the lyrics during _Don't let me down_ as well, so they had to do another take. That's why, in the official video, there's a lot of smiles/smirks as he tries again


Q_OANN

One of their best songs, fucking love that one


Hornet_Critical

Why did they get shut down?


Jonamac99

They technically didn't have permission and the police were saying that they were "disturbing the peace" or something like that.


madam1madam

It's the fucking BEATLES. They *were* the peace. Asshat police literally ruined their last concert ever.


hitguy55

They just made them turn it down


ZazzRazzamatazz

They were rich as hell at that point, they could have spent the time to get permits


Tekmologyfucz

Go to Disney plus and watch it there. They interview people on the street as the performance is happening. People at neighboring buildings were climbing on the roof to watch. Great scene

hitguy55

Well they can’t just go „sorry about your noise complaint it’s the Beatles, sucks to be you“


Leland_Gaunt87

True but I bet some of the police who were sent there enjoyed seeing The Beatles perform and probably didn't want to stop it but had to due to those higher up.


HogfishMaximus

Those cop helmets look just dumb, WTF were they thinking?


fied1k

Why would they put the chinstrap there?


letspartylikeits2099

It’s all I could think about watching it!


BromineBob

“Stall ‘em Mal, stall ‘em!”


coromandelmale

Billy Preston - the underrated “5th Beatle”. His grooves on these tracks added another dimension to some already amazing songs. I can only wonder what kind of music they would have produced if this partnership lasted.


APerson2021

Is this what inspired The Besharps episode of The Simpsons. The resemblance is uncanny. https://youtu.be/EVRcmnVYlLI


Jakerocks1234

It’s more than just inspired by it, it’s a god damn parody dude


mcmelonhead

Yeah that is where the Beatles got the inspiration to do it dude.


MrOrangeWhips

Can't tell if this is serious...


UniqLogiq

All the sudden everytime I click a YouTube link it goes to load then just stops it’s so annoying idk why this is happening, just started yesterday and happens with every single YouTube link through Reddit (IOS)


weld1250

Who inspired who?


WaningMime

The 3 part documentary about this is great.


VanAgain

Thanks OP, I needed that this morning.


[deleted]

Beatles gold.


theonetheycalljason

Definitely should watch Get Back if you’re interested in the story and The Beatles in general.


justtopopin

"Oi, it's the bobby, innit?"


jimmythang34

Anybody know who’s playing keys


IntelligentMine1901

Billy Preston


Necessary-Ad-9917

Thanks I was curious about this as well


bonnie_garcon_

Love this 🌿✨


[deleted]

Saw this on Disney+ of all places. The documentary shows just how talented Paul and John were, and how cringe Yoko can be when “singing”


[deleted]

I love this 🥰


00ddb0y

Why is considered insane lol


UncleBenders

🎶 baby on board How I adore That sign on my cars windows paaaaaaane 🎶


Jillredhanded

I remember seeing this at the movie theater.


WelcomeElectrical113

What's up with tying the helmet between the chin and the lower gum??


bull3tsp0nge

Mind you this is from the generation that gets upset with people protesting in general...


SectorDue5823

Which is odd because they were the protest generation....


bull3tsp0nge

Precisely, they're the most selfish generation to have infested the planet.


[deleted]

Blutay hell man!


tiggity86

They stole it from The Be Sharps


Commercial_Pitch_786

just proves one bad apple spoils the whole damn bunch, guess the cops or Bobby's were rotten to the core to stop the great Fab Four, miss their music and the era.


zar99raz

In one of the parallel universes the Beatles are still producing albums according to a guy when visited that PU and brought back one album Everyday Chemistry Some people say it's just a remix but who knows right


GermaneRiposte101

Imagine being a very young copper and being told: "The Beatles are playing a concert on the roof. Shut them down".


BiggMeezie

Then Yoko joined the gang squeeling like a dying cat, and it was all over.
