            "Any time now." Club Sandwich 59
            "Let's go then."
            GO: go, v.i. (going, pret. went, pp. gone), to move; to proceed; to depart; to be about to do; to circulate; to tend; to be guided.
            Macca wasn't tending to be guided anywhere. Nor was he moving, proceeding or departing much. Let alone circulating. The anaconda grip of Hamburg's fascination was preventing that; at least until Richard led off with a neat demonstration of why his old school won all the inter-county rugby shields.
            "Excuse me, fraulein, I work for Paul McCartney, pardon me while I scrummage..."
            Five more minutes of mobbing later and Paul, Linda mit band are sitting around a microphone inside soundproofed Radio Hamburg while most of the strasse outside are beating on the curtained windows, mouthing for another look.
            "Shall we open the blinds and let them see ?" said Radio Hamburg, naively.
            "Not if you want any glass left in those window frames, son."
            Chat chat chat chat. Dedication dedication dedication. Anecdote anecdote (DJ: "Is it a responsibility being a star?" Macca: "If we turn up at a place like this and there's people cheering, that's great. If you turn up and there's no-one here, then that's a responsibility") and it's auf wiedersehen, Radio Hamburg, and back to the kino...
            In which, in Screen Ein, 600 suited and glad-ragged ticket-holders (adults, not raving teenies) stood and applauded Paul and his party for a full five minutes before Get Back even began.
            Why is why the last word should fittingly go to Jake Eberts, executive producer of Get Back. Jake has been involved in movies since 1976. His films have received 60 Academy Award nominations and have won 26 Oscars, including four Best Picture awards. Among some you might have heard of are: Chariots Of Fire, Gandhi, The Killing Fields, Driving Miss Daisy and Dances With Wolves.
            As the kino went dark and the opening titles rolled, Jake stood at the back and whispered: "Never - ever - in all my time in movies, have I seen scenes like this today. Never."
