“By the evening of August 29 [1966], when they enact their final concert—at San Francisco’s Candlestick Park, to a less than sold-out house—they have been working at being the Beatles for nearly a decade, effectively without cease. And now a good part of it is over: no more will they appear as exposed objects on the stage of public display, or serve as fleshly targets for either adoration or hostility…That’s why John and Paul take their Tokyo cameras to the stage and snap pictures throughout the show” (Devin McKinney, Magic Circles: The Beatles in Dream and History, 2003).
