thateventuality: Scan - John in a Hamburg street in his underpants, shortly before the Beatles returned to Liverpool. On the reverse of the photograph he wrote: ‘Me sightseeing, Hamburg, November 1960. One Giant Photo Coming Soon.’ This isn’t the exact photo that goes along with this story, but it’s similar and amusing nonetheless: “It was hard work [in Hamburg], but we were just five fellows having a good time. We did daft things all the time. John had a pair of Long John underpants, as it was getting very cold with winter drawing on. George bet him ten marks that he wouldn’t go out, wearing them and nothing else. He went out in the street, just in his Long Johns, with sun specs on and read the Daily Express for five minutes. We watched him, killing ourselves laughing.” - From The Beatles by Hunter Davies -- source link
