Jane Asher recalls her 1968 theater role in "Look Back in Anger" in this UK Telegraph story. And no, the story doesn't mention Paul McCartney.

Ringo at the Grammy Museum may already be sold out - I looked on Ticketmaster and it seemed like it was only an American Express pre-sale, and all of the tickets are gone. They were $50 each plus Ticketmaster fees. There are tickets on Craigslist already...I saw a listing for $199 each.
Yep... and they're up on eBay also. It's a great venue to see a performer. Back in the good old days; a show at the Grammy Museum was more like hearing a speaker in a classroom - with a few songs thrown in for good measure. $10-$20 was the norm. Too bad if these shows are going to be too exclusive for "normal" folks to get in.
