A "Love Me Do" Marathon of Celebrations for Liverpool's Mersey Beatles!


The Mersey Beatles will celebrate 50 years of the release of The Beatles first single this Friday and Saturday.

A "Love Me Do marathon" of events starts for them at 11am on Friday when the boys will be live on BBC Radio Humberside via link up to BBC studios in Liverpool.

Between 2pm and 5pm The Mersey Beatles will perform live on Radio Merseyside.
This will be an acoustic set including 3 versions of "Love Me Do", in 3 different genres
as requested by host Billy Butler.

Later they play in Formby at the St John Stone venue. Unfortunately for fans all 250 seats have been sold out for weeks.



On Saturday The Mersey Beatles will be at Grimsby Central Hall to perform their all era concert including back projection, four costumes and around 40 of your favourite Beatles songs 100% live and in the original recorded key.  A few tickets for this special event are still available; click HERE for more information and to book.

On Sunday, BBC4 will air an one-hour documentary, “Love Me Do: The Beatles ‘62”, in which Stuart Maconie explores the story behind the Beatles first single, and how it went on to change music history and popular culture forever. Guest-starring The Mersey Beatles, and featuring reflections from pop artist Sir Peter Blake, Bob Harris and former Beatles drummer Pete Best, this is not to be missed!

Then it's all down to London in time to celebrate John Lennon’s birthday by playing a sold out dinner concert on the Thames aboard the all-glass symphony boat.  100 very lucky guests will enjoy this special evening.

If you can't get to these shows why not join The Mersey Beatles on 10th November as they become the first Beatles tribute band to play at The Epstein Theatre, Liverpool.  Ticket availability is already limited, so book now to avoid disappointment by clicking HERE or go to www.epsteinliverpool.co.uk
