I remember that venue - lots of echo in the room because of a high ceiling. Played there myself in the mid-Sixties with the Triad Soul Caravan Show, one of the best groups that I was a member of. Unfortunately, I can't find anything about them online.

Maybe it'll be up to me to put something up one day... ;o)

Experience

There was something in Paul's voice when he sang the phrase "Love Me Do" at the end of the verses that told me everything in Pop was going to change, and it did! I left my first band (which I had founded), partly because the other members thought I was a bit weird to want to change our style to reflect that of the Beatles! As a rock musician, I appeared with them in the ABC Theatre in Blackpool, England in 1963, and my songwriting has always been influenced by theirs.
