Beatlemania Part 2 - The White Album - 2nd/3rd Nov '24

Post by Jolly »

The first gig was absolutely amazing! Revolver, Sgt Peppers and Magical Mystery Tour in full.

Next up is The White Album in full.

I will be solo this time and walking out of Central Station around 1030am on the 2nd and leaving around 7pm on the 3rd. Booked a dorm room at StayOkay Hostel Oost due to the piss taking of Amsterdam hotels.

As usual the plan is Siberie first and go with the flow after that. May head out to Haarlem and Willy Wortels to try and source Nol's book The Dutch Experience.

34 days to go

Afternoon!

Everything is booked and I'm ready to go. Just need to wait 19 days :shock:

Managed to source Nols book so planning to head straight to Haarlem from Schiphol via bus, rent a bike for a couple of hours, down to Indica to collect the book from them then, a small coffeeshop crawl to Birdy and others as yet undecided. Train to Amsterdam via the bus to Schiphol. Work on the rail lines is causing a little inconvenience but nothing too bad.

Bike, Hostel, Siberie will be the plan of action when I walk out of Centraal.

Thanks mate. It's a busy morning indeed! I remember Empire from my 1st visit to Haarlem many years ago. Glad to know it's still a good coffeeshop. I'll add it to the crawl list.

Aye it's a shame we miss each other but we've got 420 2025 in the not so distant future if not before.

There's a great joke in the horror movie I did that's partially set in a record store. A customer comes in and says hey besides the red ,white, and blue Beatles Albums are there any other good greatest hits collections by them.
Someone asked me to describe a perfect date. I said April 25th: it's not too cold and not too hot.
