Its a fact. I used to go to the ABC Minors on a Saturday morning (oldies may remember 6d and 9d to get in). The Beatles played and a neighbour of mine's mother who worked there got John Lennon's autograph. He had it valued and authonticated by Sotherby's in London who confirmed it to be genuine (he knew it was genuine). It would have been worth a few hundred pounds if it was on a page of its own but on the reverse of the page was the autographs of the Wakefield Trinity team of the day.

One of the best bands ever - saw them many times in the late 80's (Reading Festival 1987 one of the best gigs ever) and the guys in the band are still performing and as good - Dan Baird & Homemade Sin (Dan & Mauro from the Satellites, Keith original bass player before 'their hit' and Warner Hodges from Jason & The Scorchers on guitar) at the Borderline in London this year was brilliant - 2 hours 40 mins of great rock music.

Saw them at MEN Arena not bad but 95% of people were only there for the 3 G N R tracks they played.
