Move over, Ms L!

Hi all, wondering why you are looking at this jumbled up page? This is due to the fact that Facebook didn't like our url since it starts with wog, so we have been forced to move the blog. This was some time ago, and we have placed a script which would automatically send you to our new location. Obviously, this hasn't worked for all of you, since we have just finished moderating some of your comments which appeared on this site recently, and not on our new (and improved!) site. So what we're saying is head on over to our new site, and update your bookmarks!

121 new Beatles photos

The Beatles never came to Norway, but photographer Johan Brun from the Norwegian newspaper "Dagbladet" was sent to Copenhagen when the Fab Three plus Jimmy Nicol had their concerts there on 4. June 1964. Now the 121 stunning black and white photos are available online at the Norwegian Digital Museum, most of them probably for the first time ever. As well as the concerts, the photos also cover the Beatles arrival at the airport, a press conference and their departure. Rather a large number of photos focus on the mania and the audience, but there are also quite a few wonderful photos of the Beatles themselves.

You can view all the photos spread across six pages on the website of the Digital Museum.
