JOHN LENNON MET PAUL MCCARTNEY ON THIS DAY- JULY 6, 1957. JOHN MET PAUL AT A CHURCH FETE AT ST. PETERS CHURCH. JOHN AND HIS GROUP, THE QUARREYMEN., WERE PLAYING TO THE CROWD ON THE BACK ON A FLATBED TRUCK. THE QUARREYMENS SHOW FOLLOWED A POLICE DOG DISPLAY TEAM, WHICH WAS THE DAYS MAIN ATTRACTION. PAUL WAS TALKED INTO COMING BY HIS PAL, IVAN VAUGHN, WHO TOLD HIM IT WAS A GOOD PLACE TO MEET GIRLS. AFTER THEIR PERFORMANCE, PAUL WAS INTRODUCED TO JOHN, WHO HAD THE SMELL OF BEER ON HIS BREATH. PAUL PLAYED A FEW SONGS FOR JOHN AND JOHN WAS IMPRESSED HE KNEW ALL THE WORDS. PAUL ALSO IMPRESSED JOHN BY BEING ABLE TO PROPERLY TUNE A GUITAR. AFTER MEETING HIM, JOHN HAD TO DECIDE WHETHER TO TAKE IN SUCH A TALENTED GUY. BEFORE PAUL ARRIVED, JOHN WAS THE STRONGEST MEMBER OF THE GROUP, THE UNDISPUTED LEADER. HE HAD TO MAKE A HUGE DECISION: DO I MAKE THE GROUP STRONGER OR KEEP MYSELF THE STRONG ONE?. HE ASKED PAUL TO JOIN THE GROUP SHORTLY THEREAFTER.
