“John would say, ‘How’s Ep doing?’ Then Brian would ring me to say, ‘What happened down there today? Did John talk about me?’ I would say, ‘Well, matter of fact, no, he didn’t mention you.’ ‘Oh, that’s very odd.’ He seemed to be rather jealous of the fact that I was there.”
@johnlennonfan08 Also see his August 1967 interviews with Melody Maker. He speaks about queerness a bit and uses the “we” pronoun in reference to homosexuals which is… interesting.
@johnlennonfan08 Yes! Hunter Davies said in his second edition of the Beatles biography I believe that Brian gave him permission to mention his sexuality in print. It was only censored after his death due to demands by his family.
"[There's] a great memory of mine [of Brian], in his polka dot scarf at the back of the crowd, holding himself proud, very proud, of his boys."—Paul McCartney, 1998
This day in 1962, John Lennon married Cynthia Powell at Liverpool's Mount Pleasant register office. Brian Epstein was the best man. John then played a gig that night with the Beatles at Liverpool's Riverpark Ballroom #Beatles#JohnLennon#History
