There seems to be a lot going on right now, so I thought it was a good time for an update.
First of all I hope you have gotten the chance or plan to see Rock Show at your local movie theater. I went Thursday night and let me tell you: it was worth the price of a ticket! I had never seen Rock Show before, and had only heard audio for the 1976 tour. So seeing Paul and Linda and the rest of the '76 Wings gang performing on a big screen was awesome! The set list was pretty awesome as well. If it is still showing in your area and you weren't sure about seeing it, let me tell you that you will regret it if you miss the chance to see this film on the big screen.
This time next week I will be at the Paul McCartney concert in Memphis, Tennessee. I have the VIP package and will be seeing the sound check as well as being in the fourth row center for the concert. This will be the closest I have ever been to Paul! I hope he acknowledges me in some fashion (Ringo pointed to me in 2000 and I still am gushing about it!). I also will be seeing James McCartney on June 4th in St. Louis. If any of you are at either of these shows and see me, please say hello! I am always excited to talk to people who are visitors of this blog. Also expect a full report and photos of these concerts when I return.
As I enter the summer time, and my time off from teaching elementary kids how to be better readers, I will be updating the blog, but not my usual routine. Except for things to be a tad "spotty" from time to time with updates. From July 6-July 15 I will be in Liverpool, London and Hamburg. Obviously I will be busy with my Beatles pilgrimage tour to update the blog during that time. Again if any of you are in those towns the same time I will be there, please let me know.
The MTBFR facebook group has exceeded my goal of 1000 members and as of right now it has 1051 members! Thank you so much to everyone who helped me out in spreading the word.
In the upcoming months (June or July) I will be having a MTBFR contest to win an autographed Beatle book. Keep checking in for more information.
If any of you have Beatles photos or stories to share with the blog, please send them to me at Starshyne9@yahoo.com The past few months I haven't been receiving very many items and I have been really scrounging around for things to post. I haven't been as happy with the contents of this blog as I usually am. Also if you have any old fanzines that have stories that haven't been posted, that would be great as well. I often get outbid on the fanzines I try to win.
Thanks everyone for your support. Beatles forever!

ReplyDeleteHey, just wanted to say, the blog seems well up-to-par of late, especially today, looking at what you posted this week so far!
I'm going to see Macca right after you! I accidentally saw the set (I won't tell, don't worry!). I mean, I accidentally saw PART of the set....and then I said, well, I already saw part of it, might as well see the whole thing!!!
Well, anyways, have a GRRRRRREAT time, rock-a-girl!!!! Can't wait to hear all about the show, the soundcheck (!!), and your trip!!!!! Don't worry about us, we'll be faithful, waiting....just have a great summer!!!!
