Update: Sergeant Pepper costume won a prize!

I wanted to post an update since we had the amazing FabFest festival this weekend. My outfit won first place in its category! We had so much fun heading up the first ever costume contest this year, too.

Friday night was the concert. My sister and I were George and Pattie and were in stage for the coolest 60s fashion show. Unfortunately I can’t post a video here! Saturday was the daytime festival (free!), and I was Yoko, my sister was John, her husband was George, and my husband was Paul. We got some silly pics of Yoko eyeing Paul and John getting jealous 😹

I also got to meet two really cool Redditors at the festival thanks to my last post. Thanks for all your support!

Free music festival October 3 — FabFest

Hi all! I wanted to put the word out that Charlotte has the southeast’s only Beatles festival and it’s happening in two weeks! On October 3 there is a free Beatles and 60s music-themed festival at Central Piedmont Community College (the Parr Center). It’s a lot of fun. There’s an art contest, trivia, live music nonstop, and this year is the first-ever costume contest! You can dress up as a real person in the Beatlesphere, general 60s fashion, or inspired by Beatles songs. Adult, youth, and (if enough participants) family/group prizes. I am one of the judges for the costume contest and can’t wait to see what people come up with! Spoiler — everyone who enters the costume contest gets a fun goodie bag with really cool Beatles merch.

There is also a concert on Friday October 2, and I think there are still tickets available. It’s extremely fun. It has different local and traveling musicians doing Beatles covers, and it also does audience singalongs for 4-5 Beatles songs. If you’ve never sung Hey Jude in an audience of hundreds, I highly recommend it.

Ping me with any questions!

Looking for a men’s vest like in Get Back

Hi all, I’m looking for a casual cotton vest like both Paul and John wear in Get Back. I’ve looked a lot and have bought a beautiful velvet and wool one, but nothing for summer to wear over a tee. Any ideas/resources?
