Thursday, 15th February, 1962
The Beatles perform a lunch time show at The Cavern Club. In the evening they headed across the River mersey to perform before an audience of 3,500 at the Tower Ballroom in New Brighton. Sharing the bill with The Beatles on this occasion was Terry Lightfoot and his New Orleans Jazz Band.
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.
