Sunday, 3rd March, 1963
The Helen Shapiro tour concludes at the Gaumont Cinema, in Hanley, Staffordshire. After starting the tour as the opening act at the bottom of the bill, the Fab Four have worked their way up to closing the first-half of each show.
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.
