Bob Geldof: 'Beatles remind me of urine'

Bob Geldof has admitted that he associates The Beatles with the smell of urine.

The singer revealed that he was stunned by the large number of young girls "p*ssing themselves" at a Beatles concert he attended in the 1960s and can no longer remember the band without thinking of the incident.

"The Beatles was a case of watching females in excelsis. It's the old cliché, but you couldn't hear them for all the screaming," he told Q magazine.

"I remember looking down at the cinema floor and seeing these rivulets of p*ss in the aisles. The girls were literally p*ssing themselves with excitement. So what I associate most with The Beatles is the smell of girls' urine."
