Thursday, 24th January, 1963
 The Beatles started the day with an appearence at the Epstein’s central Liverpool NEMS record store on Whitchapel. They signed copies of Please, Please Me and played a short acoustic set on the stairway.
After the NEMS gig they drove to the Welsh town of Mold for an evening peformance in the Assembly Hall on the town’s High Street.
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.
