09 March – Today in Beatle History Wed

1962- The Beatles perform at the Cavern Club twice – at lunchtime and again at night.

1963 – The Beatles, back on tour, this time with Americans Chris Montez and Tommy Roe, perform at the Granada Cinema, East Ham, London. It is quite clear, from the first of the two “houses” this night onward, that The Beatles are, in fact, the premiere attraction. The Beatles play “Love Me Do”, “Misery”, “A Taste of Honey”, “Do You Want to Know a Secret”, “Please Please Me”, and “I Saw Her Standing There”
