Saturday, 14th December, 1963
The Beatles play a special gig at the Wimbledon Palais for 3000 members of the Southern Area Beatles Fan Club. After the gig the Fab Four lined up at the Palais’ bar and shock hands with each one of the 3000 audience members as they filed past.
Alan J. Porter has been a Beatles fan since he first saw them perform on a regional British TV show back in 1963 when he was just a wee lad. He is the author of the critically acclaimed BEFORE THEY WERE BEATLES and occasional contributor to Beatlology Magazine. He now lives in Central Texas and occasionally writes about things other than The Fab Four. You can find out more here.
