You’d be sooo surprised how many people in my comments tell me I think I’m the best fan and I need to respect the better fans. Lmao

I wish I was more diligent though. I could be better.

Maybe I can say “I read more than 90% of Beatles fans so I’ve done my part.”

Oh I haven’t seen broadstreet either I’m not exactly clamoring to do that.

I’M SEEING RINGO IN FOUR MONTHS?? One of my best friends lives in Australia and has never failed to support and love me, through my darkest times and my biggest successes. And because of them I get to see Ringo live in the fall. Im speechless.

And here’s where I excel.

There is no biggest Beatles fan or best Beatles fan! Especially not me.

I have only 2 Beatle records, no player, only 3 shirts, very little merch, haven’t seen or saved to see a Beatle and pic includes my biggest sins!

Also, what's with them finding writers for this project JUST NOW? AFTER casting? What the hell lines were they reading at the auditions? Did they read ANYTHING? Make it make sense.

This is a great point David

A band largely inspired by Black music.
A fan base built on and supported by women and girls.
The definitive public view of the Beatles narrative always written by white men.

How refreshing.

I couldn’t organize them if I wanted to. Usually I have books across three rooms. I just know them well so I grab them when I know I need them

Please don’t look too closely at the shelf. It’s not organized in any normal way. In fact, I already moved it back to how it usually is because I have a light up there and I always have anthology, the lyrics, Geoff’s book & Ken Womack’s George Martin books on my desk.

Yours is goals! I’m still relatively new but there’s always so many more I want.

Good news is he can cling back

@schrijverlaura.bsky.social the full list!

By request: an almost complete list of my Beatles books

Notes: Yellow Submarine book, a children’s Beatles book not mentioned. Tune In Vol 1 extended is my monitor stand. Not pictured are owned digitally. I have not read them all cover to cover.

They’re on my computer lmao I’ll post them later

My ebooks library is a cry for help (about 27 not shown)

Finally got this

it's not polite to point

*I’ve recently learned after my first ethical research video that Doug Sulpy had found a lot of errors in that book so I have to start going through those corrections as well

There is ALWAYS more to learn about the Beatles. How much time do I spend reading, you ask?

A lot. I spend more time reading and re-reading than anything else.

Most re-read are Lewisohns recording sessions*, Geoff Emerick’s book, a majority of Ken Womack’s works.

My hair had been all one length for about seven years. I decided to take the plunge to make styling easier for videos!

Here’s the before (it was wet not dirty)

His stance is killing me

I got a haircut!

This longstanding association of the Beatles and serial murders is so bizarre and horrible to me. I know Manson would have found something to use as his fodder at some point but he chose a song I believe at some level is about John Lennon/Paul’s fear of losing the Beatles.
