WHEN: Friday 23rd May, 3pm and again at 7pm

WHERE: St James’ Church

PRICE: A fund raiser for the church – donations welcome!

 

Not many have a master’s degree on the Beatles. Only one person has two, from Hope University Liverpool and the University of Liverpool itself.  The talk will be a mixture of short quizzes, film clips, wonderful music and stories about the Beatles that many of you won’t know.

 Amongst the many other things that Viv will be talking about are:

  • Why was the timing perfect for the Beatles launch in 1962?
  • Why was their roadie so important?
  • Was the Cavern where it all began?
  • How important was Jane Asher in the development of the Beatles?
  • What ever happened to Pete Best, the drummer that Ringo replaced?
  • Why did they write songs for so many other performers?
  • What lasting effect have they made on their home city of Liverpool?
  • And much much more ..

Be transported back in time to the post war black and white world where a bombed sea port city produced arguably the best band ever.
