Saturday, 12th August, 1961
It was back to the Aintree Institute tonight for the first gig of a seven week commitment for local promoter Brian Kelly. The Beatles would perform each Saturday evening between now and the end of September.
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.
