@BE THIS GUY: Yoko has long been blamed for something that had multiple causes. Sir Paul even explained what happened in 2013. When the Beatles manager, Brian Epstein, died, the group began to really fall apart. They had already developed very different musical interests (Paul continued with pop music, George was beginning to get more into Indian music, and John wanted to do experimental music.) It was Epstein who had set up Apple Corporation, and with his death, the musicians could not really figure out themselves how to run the ‘business side’ of the business. Epstein had helped mediate among them to let George have at least one song on each album (even though Paul and John didn’t care for the Indian music that much). They brought in new management, but it didn’t work out. In fact, even before Epstein’s death, Ringo had gone away from the group to record with others. It was a lot more than Yoko Ono that split the Beatles up…

Only reason 20,000 people will show up for Yoko is to hear her apologize for breaking up The Beatles.

In a larger sense, Mr Sanitation Department Guy, we’re all Yoko Ono.
