(Ocean Robbins) In August 1960, five British teenagers calling themselves the “Silver Beatles” landed themselves a gig in Germany. The youngest, George Harrison, had to lie about his age to receive a work visa. They were to play six days a week in Hamburg’s Indra club, typically finishing their seven-hour sets around three in the morning, for which they received about $50 a week. They were given free lodging backstage in a nearby movie theater, next to the toilets. Their first night, they played when the main act, a stripper, took her breaks.
