Ringo and Paul were at their favorite pub one night.
“Do you think we should ever tell folks?” The aged bassist pondered aloud.
“It might bloody flip ’em out,” his drummer companion replied.
They reminisced about their band’s plans to reunite in 1983, upon the twentieth anniversary of the “Please Please Me” album.
“Remember John’s nasty Rolling Stone interview,” Paul mused. “When he lashed out at us, throwing ’em off the track?”
“Oh did George ever do a number on us!” Ringo chimed in.
“Oh well,” said Paul. “It wasn’t meant to be, I reckon.”
“Yesterday” came on the radio.

How interesting.. what an opportunity the world missed… I wonder if they will ever tell though

Dear Larry,
It was a dirty trick for the two lads to go and die the way they did. Yesterday was the perfect song to play on the radio.
Shalom,
Rochelle

I read recently that Lennon’s death was a result of his always having been so controversial & Harrison’s was equally consistent with his stressed.out mentality. Another thing I read was that a reunion was a real possibility. My story was based upon that claim.

Great as they had been together, I believe reunification would have been a terrible mistake.
Good piece.
