This is an interesting photo. Here we have the Beatles meeting a fan during their horrendous time in Manila in 1966. Our favorite foursome look very hot and sweaty and tired. George appears to be in an unhappy mood, Paul seems to be doing his normal smile for the camera, John is just there hoping to get this meeting over with, and Ringo is making a little girl happy by giving her his autograph. This fan is just happy to meet the boys, and she has no clue how miserable they really were in her country.
Oh my gosh! What a historic photo! Scratch that, what a fantastic photo!
ReplyDeleteI never knew that I didn't know everything about the Beatles until I found this blog!
Yes, that's definitely "stern George" as John would say!
Wow. Man oh man, Sara, you're on some roll this week, girl! An embarrassment of riches!
I'm not sure about stern George. He looks just neutral to me. His eyes don't look particularly stern or unhappy. And Paul's smile looks forced and frozen to me. John seems to be just chilling back there. I'm sure they all just want to get the whole thing over with. But yeah great photo. All of your photos are great.
