You know you're a fan when you're looking through the internet for Beatles pictures.

You know you're a fan when you buy a bright orange blanket like the one in "Help!"

You know you're a Beatles fan when you make out that because John is "in heaven" or wherever, he can control the weather... I was in Liverpool for John's birthday today and I'd considered being the typical fan and wearing a Beatles t-shirt and all that, but I decided that John probably preferred his ladies in dresses... thus when I was walking through Liverpool ALL day today and the wind kept blowing my dress up, I kept jokingly yelling "stop trying to get at me knickers, John!"

Ooh, I know, I know! You buy a bright orange balnket AND you use it in the car boot!

Or, you buy an additional blanket, a blue one this time, and you use it in bed while sleeping the worng way round, in case a fishing rod (or a plastic one) comes out of the ventilation grille and goes spare on your hand!

You know you're a fan when ... you are looking round a potential new school for your child, and you walk into the music room, to be faced with a wall of Beatles pictures (nice b & w ones!) and THEN you get told they spend a term studying the Beatles' music, well, maybe we should just send her to the good school that has the Beatles in it, not the nasty bad school with no Beatles??? What do you think, guys? By the way, I like the blanket saga!

Well, I might seem like a real loser but...

I have two rings I wear, and I wear one on each ring finger. So then people will ask me, "Who are you married to??" Just to tease me, and I'll say "I'm married to Roger Taylor and Paul McCartney! And Freddie Mercury was my Maid of Honor at both of my weddings"

Haha, if it's got Beatles then "you know it can't be bad"!

)
Did you end up picking that school, cubanheel?

^ Aha, trying out some bigamy, yeah?

You know you're a fan when you're on an out-of-town job and you get excited about going to a place called Sgt Pepper for lunch, and you look for a Beatles picture and find it too

You know you're obsessed with The Beatles when in an electronic music lecture, your tutor opens by putting an image of the original Mr Kite poster on the board and asks who knows what it is and why it's relevant... and you say rather matter-of-factly, in pretty much one breath, "it's the poster John Lennon based his song 'Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite' on, and it's relevant because it's a track that's highly regarded for technological experimentation with the way they cut up samples on tapes and looped them to create the fairground sounds." And then the whole class turns to stare at you in silence, followed by one guy pointing to you and yelling "...KNOWLEDGE!"

My class love me for being a 50's and 60's dork... NOT.

You know you're an obsessive fan when your teacher is singing Beatles songs during worktime and you actually bother to correct him on an incorrect lyric...

Jai Guru Deva. · « **Reply #1653 on:** November 30, 2010, 04:55:02 PM »

Hahaha I would do the same thing! You know you're a Beatles fan when your tutor plays you the opening scene of the original "Casino Royale", which I believe was made in the 60's... The scene is in France, and the opening shot is a man leaning against a pillar with graffiti on it, and what did I notice that someone had scrawled on the pillar amongst the graffiti that no one else noticed? "Les Beatles". I giggled and everyone wondered why.

You know you are a fan when you listen to the Beatles while you drive and you do not have the heart to change the music!

You know you're a fan when...

-You write a six page long story about your Paul McCartney concert experience, and it wasn't for school or anything. I just did it for the heck of it, so when I'm an old fart and can't remember anything, I can read it and at least always remember the concert! Extreme dork.

-On the first day of your popular music class, your teacher explains how some songs can be identified by just three notes, and he plays the first three notes of a song on the piano, asking if anyone knows the song. You then are the only one to raise your hand (when it's something you never do), and say the answer: "Yesterday!"

-Your main reason for taking the class Popular Music was because of the Beatles. Then you're extremely upset because you missed the one day of class that was about the Beatles. Figures!

-Everyone you know seems to be giving you Beatles-related stuff. The people I watched puppies for gave me an original poster actually from 1964, a Ringo card from 1964, an original Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever single, and a Beatles plaque. The owner of the guitar shop I get lessons at says he has an original magazine from 1980 about John's death that he'll bring in for me. I'm just kinda known as THE Beatles fan around here.
