Donna attends The Fest at the TWA hotel. The Fest started in 1974 as the brainchild of a New York-born, New Jersey-raised Beatles fan – Mark Lapidos. In 1974 he was a 26-year-old manager of a Sam Goody record store in NYC. He was a Beatles devotee and he simply wanted to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the year in which the Beatles first came to America. So he decided to create a weekend convention in Manhattan for fellow Beatles fans. At the Fest Donna talks with singer/songwriter Bethany Vollaro, Deirdre Kelly author of “Fashioning the Beatles”, Freda Kelly former Beatles Secretary, Mark Lapidos Founder of the Beatlesfest, Piers Hemmingsen the Beatles in Canada historian, Tom Frangione from Sirius XM, Singer Billy J. Kramer, Artist Shannon MacDonald, Marlene Weisman Print Magazine, Adrian Sinclair and Allan Kozinn authors of The McCartney Legacy, Andy Edwards sculptor plus a plethora of Beatles fans. Donna chats with Dr. Nicole Rotondi from Acupuncture Wellness Services. Dr. Rotondi has been helping patients achieve their wellness goals since 1999. She oversees the inner workings of this very busy practice and is involved in every patient’s case.
