āThis happened in Philadelphia, so long ago: December the 16th, 1974. [ā¦] I asked the bartender for a piece of paper to write a note. On the paper, I wrote: āGeorge: Do a favour for me. Make some mention of the fact that today is Beethovenās birthday. Do it for me. I am Eric Hall, formerly of Porchester Road, Norris Green, Liverpool 11.ā Then I walked all round the stadium to where one could see steps that led down into the darkness of backstage. Reaching the bottom of the steps, I beckoned to a giant security guard [ā¦]. I proffered the folded little note and said politely, āWould you see that George Harrison gets this, please?ā He took the note and ambled away from me⦠I thought, āWell, thatās the last Iāll hear of thatā¦ā [ā¦] December 16th was a Monday that year. On the Wednesday, I was sitting in my office and the phone rang. It was Jim, a photographer friend. He said, āEric! Were you at the Spectrum last night?!ā I said, 'For George Harrison? No, I was there Monday night.ā Jim said, 'Wow, man! You wouldnāt believe what happened! 'George Harrison came out and halfway through the show and he said, āMy friend, Eric Hall from Norris Green back in my hometown is here tonight. He tells me itās Beethovenās birthday today. Hereās something for Eric,ā and then he played the Ode to Joy from Beethovenās Ninth Symphony! In the coolest rock style, dude!ā Jim yelled into the phone, 'I couldnāt believe my ears, ma-an!ā Whoa, neither could I. The amazing thing was that there was someone there that knew me. I would never have known of Georgeās generosity ā or his pride in doing something for a Scouser so far from home! Some karma, huh? But then, you know, sometimes good karma is just being a Scouser.
