No Beatlemania here!


What is up with the girl in the background? She is paying more attention to the guy next to her than to Paul McCartney! Paul looks a little bored with it all. Yet another photo that needs more explanation for me to understand it.

  1. It was taken backstage during an early 1963 tour. I think the guy was one of the singers on the tour.... I think Tommy Roe. Yeah pretty sure that's Tommy Roe, so this was probably the Tommy Roe/Chris Montez tour. The girl is not a fan of anyone...just I believe, a backstage visitor. I know I have this photo somewhere in a book, but I couldn't find it. But I seem to remember the girl was someone connected to Tommy Roe, rather than the Beatles.
