There's a book called "The Beatles: A Day-to Day Diary" by Barry Miles that lists the dates of pretty much every gig the Beatles ever did, as well as almost everything else they did in the 60s.

QUESTION: hi elizabeth do you know were i can get it is it widely available,or is it available on line. steve

Answer
http://www.amazon.com/Beatles-Diary-Barry-Miles/dp/0711963150

It's $30 on Amazon.com.  It's a huge, coffee-table like book with lots of color pictures, which is why it costs more than your average book.  Totally worth it, in my opinion.

but if you don't want to spend that much, here are listings for used copies being sold:

Or, if you just want a plain list of every concert (sans Hamburg club playing) from 1961 on:

Expertise

I am a HUGE fan who happened to soak up lots and lots of trivia on her way through Beatle land (I`ve been told I have Beatle radar), so I`m able to answer a question about almost anything!

Experience

I'm a professional music teacher, mainly in vocal music. My particular specialty would be questions on the music theory of the Beatles songs, or ending "who sang what" debates.
