The magic of The Beatles explained
A Unique Evening with Howard Goodall
December 16th The George Theater
World-renowned Beatles expert Howard Goodall will be in Houston to share his insights into the creative genius of the Fab Four. Gow Media and St. Luke's Friends of Music have collaborated to create the event, which will take place Monday evening, December 16th, at the beautiful George Theatre located at 5420 Westheimer. Doors will open at 6:30 and includes light bites both before and after Goodall's presentation at 7:30.
Goodall, one of Great Britain's top composers, has a longstanding friendship with Paul McCartney and a deep understanding of the legacy of the Beatles. Goodall will discuss how particular songs came together; the Beatles' innovative use of instruments and their impact on the development of popular music. Goodall's talk will be followed by a Q&A with Ken Hoffman, perhaps Houston's biggest Beatles fan.
This is an exceptional, rare opportunity -- the first time Goodall has given his presentation on the Beatles in the United States. Tickets are now on sale and make a compelling early holiday gift for Beatles enthusiasts!

MLB insider creates firestorm on free agency, shots fired at Astros
Dec 30, 2024, 5:47 pm
Rockets forward Amen Thompson threw Heat guard Tyler Herro to the floor to trigger an altercation that resulted in six ejections in the closing minute of Miami's 104-100 victory over Houston on Sunday.
Thompson and Herro became entangled with Miami about to inbound the ball leading 99-94 with 35 seconds left. Thompson grabbed Herro by the jersey and tossed him, with referee Marc Davis describing it as Thompson “body slams Herro.”
“I didn’t see it live, but I re-watched it,” Rockets coach Ime Udoka said. “They were in each other’s face, bumping chests a little bit, and one guy’s stronger than the other.”
Herro, Thompson, and Udoka were ejected, as were Heat guard Terry Rozier, Rockets guard Jalen Green, and Rockets assistant coach Ben Sullivan.
Davis said Green and Rozier escalated the altercation, while Sullivan was assessed a technical foul and ejected for unsportsmanlike comments as the referee was trying to redirect the Rockets' Alperen Sengun.
The altercation occurred after Miami had come from 12 points down in the second half to regain the lead with the help of Houston missing 11 straight shots in the fourth quarter. Herro keyed the comeback, leading all scorers with 27 points and adding nine assists and six rebounds.
He believed that's what frustrated Thompson.
“Guess that’s what’s happens when someone’s scoring, throwing dimes, doing the whole thing,” Herro said. “I’d get mad, too.”
Herro said he had never spoken to Thompson, who did not talk to reporters after Sunday’s game, so there was no previous bad blood between the two.
“Just two competitors going at it, playing basketball,” Herro said. “It was a regular game that we were playing throughout.”
Houston's Fred VanVleet had been ejected just before the fight, with Davis saying VanVleet made contact with him after being called for a 5-second violation.
The win for Miami came 24 hours after losing 120-110 in Atlanta. The Heat were missing second-leading scorer Jimmy Butler for a fifth straight game, so Herro was proud of his team played against one of NBA’s best teams this season.
“They’re top two, three in the West,” Herro said. “Very good defense. Got a bunch of young, athletic guys that can really play, so that’s a good win for us. That’s a stepping stone. We go 2-1 on the road. Put ourselves in a position to win yesterday, and I like how it’s going. We just got to continue to keep getting better.”
