When Beatlemania Went Too Far

The Beatles' first North American Tour was spectacular. It took the Beatles to a whole other level. And introduced them to some of their most intense, wildest and down-right craziest fans. In this video, I want to talk about that tour and, more specifically, some the crazy lengths the fans went to in order to get to the Beatles. And the ways the Beatles had to avoid them. There isn't a lot of footage available from this time period thanks to Brian Epstein's crazy control of their image. I've used what photos I've managed to find online. However, they may not always sync up perfectly in the story so bear that in mind. A huge source for this video was Larry Kane's Ticket to Ride - a fantastic book I read whilst on holiday. I'm Noah and I dive deep into the stories behind the greatest rock n roll music ever made. If you love Oasis, The Stone Roses, The Beatles, The Stones, The Who, Kinks, Led Zep, etc., you're in the right place. So go ahead and subscribe. Don't forget...it's only rock n roll.
