I know, I know your last tour was difficult. I know u want to go into the studio and get “experimental” now. I know all that. But please hear me out and let me convince u this is a very bad idea.
I suppose I have to admit my first reasons are meer selfish. If u stop touring, u will never again come to all the cities where your millions of adoring fans await. We will never get to experience being in the same room as you. There will be no hope for us to meet you, of at least get close to u and maybe even touch you, someday. If u lived in the 21st century, with live streaming and Internet, it would be different. We could at least see u perform and leave u commentaren u could answer, and maybe feel closer to u even if we aren’t there with you. But for the 1960s, when u abandon your tours, u abandon us completely.
I also ask u to reconsider what u are planning to do with your time once u stop touring. Getting “experimental” in the studio. First, I want to tell u that, if u heard today’s music, u would never, never, never even consider putting any effects on your precious sound and giving other musicians ideas. Second, your muziek is beautiful the way it is! It’s like love in its purest form, heart-beating, tingly romance set to music. When I hear your music, I hear u gently whispering “I love you” in my ear a hundred times. u don’t need to experiment with a sound that is already perfect. Yes, I admit, I loved your later music. I have to. It’s you. There will never be a single song u release that I don’t love. But u didn’t have to branch away from that wonderful simplicity u used to use. You’ll never improve your muziek that way, if that was what u were thinking. It’s simply not possible to improve on perfection.
And lastly, I’m afraid of what will happen to u when u start changing your entire way of doing things, fiddling with something that, much like your sound, was already perfect and needed no fixing. u left your beautiful life of seeing your fans around the world and playing with one another while creating the most heartrending muziek ever made, and once u did, u wanted to dress differently, act differently, play different kinds of music, and pursue different interests. Perhaps any of these things, on its own, wouldn’t be such a big deal. But please, look at what this is doing to you. Look before it’s too late. Can’t u see that this decision to stop touring is the first step down a slippery slope, a slope that will end with heartbreak and disaster for all of us?
You’re taking yourselves apart, piece door piece, and I can’t let u do that. Please reconsider this before it’s too late. Think what you’re doing to yourselves, and think how it would affect you, if u can’t see how it would affect us. Please don’t stop touring. It’s the worst decision u could make for yourselves, your fans, and your band.
Believe me. I have the benefit of hindsight. I know.
Love u forever,
