Tuesday, 26th February, 1963
The Beatles play perform at the Gaumont Cinema in Taunton, Somerset as part of the Helen Shapiro tour. Shapiro is too ill to perform and Danny Williams takes her place at the top of the bill.
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.
