I don’t have words right now. I might tomorrow and I might not. If you know me, you know what this man got me through. I got to hug my childhood hero and tell him a little about how much he helped me. Please ALWAYS meet your heroes. #80sfashion #80s #1980s #retro #80sretro #1980sfashion #thrifted #80sstyle #1980snostalgia #80snostalgia #80saesthetic #retrofashion #80smom #nostalgia #newwave #80smusic by @rollingwithkatelyn

As soon as I bought those tickets I just knew I had to have both of my childhood heroes in that picture even if one of them isn’t physically here. I can’t wait for the pic to come back. Thanks for being there too Paul ❤️✨ @alfredyankovic @peeweeherman #80sfashion #80s #1980s #retro #80sretro #1980sfashion #thrifted #80sstyle #1980snostalgia #80snostalgia #80saesthetic #retrofashion #80smom #nostalgia #newwave #80smusic by @rollingwithkatelyn

What an incredible week it’s been🥹 I should say what an incredible year it’s been. I’m honestly still kind of at a loss for words about everything that’s happened over this last year…but I do know one thing. This year has been the best of my entire life. I never would have imagined that one video would start me on my way to having the most magical experiences. Friendships that I’ve never had before, opportunities, and honestly an entirely new mindset from one I have had since I was a teenager. While I was already on my way to this new mindset, this past year has made me realize that maybe I do deserve good things. Maybe if I just decide to be brave and go for something, I can do it. There was no filming for the M&G this time around and I’m okay with that. Kamal came up and noticed me while I was checking in for VIP, and when I went in and Al saw me he went “KATELYN!” And gave me a huge hug. That alone is honestly in my top 3 most magical things I’ve ever experienced. I could be wrong but I really think I’ve been too nervous the other times to actually like introduce myself to him…or was too busy crying so how he knew my name idk. Maybe from the videos🤣 I got to give him the book and I think he loved it! He gave me another huge hug and then he signed my Like a Surgeon record, gave me another hug and it was over. We talked about the video a bit, I asked him if he was ready for the tour to be over because I’m sure he’s exhausted, he dropped a fun fact on me about the album cover of Like a Surgeon (fun fact being the feet are the photographer’s LOL! I guess he took the pic laying down) Thank you all for everything this past year. It’s extremely hard to put into words how much this has all meant to me. This chapter of my life has just been insane in the best way possible❤️ #weirdal #stayweird #beyourself #nostalgia #childhood by @rollingwithkatelyn

Unfortunately pics and videos were not allowed this time but hey I’m fine with it. Yes this actually happened lol! GUESS WHAT? I didn’t cry this time omg. Anyway, so I go in the VIP room right as Al was done taking the pics w the storm troopers and this man sees me and goes “KATELYN!” And gave me a huge hug. Okay how does this man know my name? I know I have met him THRICE in the last year…I don’t think I’ve ever told him my name. Am I just known? Bahahaha. It was truly the most magical experience. I think he loved the book🥹 thank you to everyone that shared a story for that. It was such an amazing and fun project to get to work on. What a year it’s been man…okay. I’m going to go try to process what just happened. More to come🥲❤️ #weirdal #weirdalyankovic #stayweird #nostalgia #80s by @rollingwithkatelyn

A week from tomorrow…I mean if you want to get technical a week from today since it’s midnight. The concert is a week from tomorrow. Idk how I feel lol. I’ve done this really weird thing since I was a child when I know I have something exciting coming up my brain just shuts it out and I genuinely cannot think about it. Am I excited? Yes. Am I also nervous? YES. Even if it is the third time…in a year…meeting your hero is a big deal okay😭 this year has flown but man it’s been the most magical year of my life. Can y’all cross everything for me that I don’t cry again lol #weirdal #80s #80sfashion #nostalgia #retro by @rollingwithkatelyn

2 years ago today (it’s midnight so yesterday I guess lol) I got to experience one of the most magical things ever. If you’ve been here for any amount of time, you know that Billy Joel has been a favorite of mine since I can remember. The very first song I ever remember hearing is Only the Good Die Young and that memory is so vivid. I was driving through a very small town in Illinois (I’ve always lived in IL) with my momma and we do go through this town occasionally but not usually the part we were in, so I’m not sure what we were doing there but it was spring turning into summer. It was overcast but not the dark kind of overcast. The kind where the sun is still trying to peak through the clouds and it’s bright. The air just smelled like summer and I remember having the windows down and that song coming on the radio. After that, I remember obviously always hearing Piano Man on the radio and that, along with Bohemian Rhapsody were my absolute favorite songs when I was little. I always have felt an unexplainable magic when I hear them even still…but to hear tens of thousands of people in a stadium singing it is something I will truly never forget and am so grateful to have been able to experience it twice now. I was at the second to last Billy Joel show and while it’s possible he’ll come back, this is why I always say just buy the damn ticket. Money comes back but an experience might not and hearing your childhood favorite song live is an experience that is worth more than words can say to me❤️ #billyjoel #nostalgia #retro #70s #80smusic by @rollingwithkatelyn

6 years ago yesterday, I got to have my first semi-Rocky Horror experience at the drive in. I say semi because there weren’t a lot of call outs even though there were props. It wasn’t even close to the first time I had seen this movie obviously, but it was the first time I had gone anywhere to see it and what they say is true. Even though it wasn’t your average Rocky Horror experience at a theater, it was way more magical than watching it by yourself. There were people dressed up, people were singing, everyone was doing the Time Warp, we all cheered when Frank came in. There were definitely SOME callouts as well, just not a ton. I guess you could still consider me a Rocky Horror virgin and I’m hoping to change that soon because it’s something I have wanted to experience for the last decade and never have. This movie gave 16 year old Katelyn (first time I watched it) who was trying to figure out who she was and was actively being bullied at the same time for who she was, permission to be herself. It made me less afraid of my queerness. It made me less afraid of being weird. It gave me a place to escape to for an hour and a half and not think about fitting in. I would LOVE to join a Rocky Horror shadow cast…but I’d be a little stubborn on who I’d play (I think we all know who that is) and I’ve heard you don’t usually get to choose who you are lol. Not only did it help me embrace who I truly was, it helped me embrace my disability. Dr. Scott lifting the blanket up and having fishnets on, as dumb as it is, did something to me. Maybe being in a wheelchair can still be sexy. Maybe being the queer weirdo that never fit in isn’t a bad thing. Maybe, just maybe there are in fact people like me and I do have a place. This movie taught a scared, queer, disabled teenager that she could be whoever the hell she wanted to be and it absolutely helped me through a very rough time. Even if I watched it by myself in my room, it still had an impact on me and it will always hold a special place in my heart❤️ #rockyhorror #timcurry #rockyhorrorpictureshow #franknfurter #beyourself by @rollingwithkatelyn

Put Katelyn in a Frank N Furter costume and I fear she’s going to feel so fabulous she’ll become insufferable🤣🤣🤣🤣 #timcurry #franknfurter #rockyhorrorpictureshow #rockyhorror #camp by @rollingwithkatelyn

If you ever ask me how working with the general public was on a certain day, or just in general…if you get a gif of this or a clip of it from now on that means I’m actively crashing out. FLAMES on the side of my face😭 #clue #80s #retro #timcurry #nostalgia by @rollingwithkatelyn
