Trigger warning: serious Beatles fan nerd-out conversation inside. I've been watching Peter Jackson's new documentary about The Beatles (The Beatles: Get Back)of late (its brilliant) and I wanted to talk to another die-hard Beatles fan like myself about the show and the band - Dave Fanning was the man right at the top of my list. Dave was a member of The Beatles fanclub from the age of eight and his love for the band hasn't waned since. We completed nerded out on the greatness of the Beatles, why they made such an impact on the world, and why they broke up. But as Dave is one of Ireland's foremost authorities on music in general, I took the opportunity to get him to open up on loads more besides, like his friendship with Bono, his views on grown-men's obsession with David Bowie, and what makes some bands rocket to fame while others, with as much talent, remain unknown. If you love music - and lets face it, who doesn't love music? – I think you're going to really enjoy this chat with Dave.COMEDY: Because Dave is one of Ireland's best-known DJs and authorities on music, it is seen as a real badge of honour to be interviewed by him on his radio show. If you're sitting in front of Dave Fanning talking about your music career, you know you're in the big leagues. Can you guess who's in the hotseat this time?The Mario Rosenstock Podcast is produced by Patrick Haughey of Audiobrand See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
