Four singers, a band. They performed often. But 1957 is important for something else.

Male or female singers?
John Lennon met Paul McCartney for the first time and was impressed by him. Later in the year Paul made his debut with the Quarrymen. Was it this step towards the formation of the Beatles?

Hi Jessica, very nice to see you back. 
I'm in the busy lane currently helping organise a very recently close friend's funeral, house, ... his sister from Tasmania stays with me on and off as needed and it's full on work.
Here's an easy one in the interim,
What big "nautical transport/financial/ international political" calamity happened in 1967?
It's almost happening again today.

That was one of the seas Thomas, close to another.
No, not a disaster.
Not Terrorists Craig.
It happened in 1967.
Happy Birthday Craig.
Many thanks mate, dont mind if it is late. Need to know your birth date as we should announce all of them so they are not lost. Post it in my profile if you dont want everyone outside our small circle to see it.

I think it had and it was neither a terrorist attack nor a disaster but an political decision, the closure of the Suez Canal in 1967 for eight years.
On 6 June 1967, after the start of the Six-Day War, Egypt closed the Suez Canal, which it owned and operated, and kept it closed until 5 June 1975, through most of the Israeli occupation of the Sinai Peninsula including the east bank of the Canal.
