SUMMARY:Meet the Beatles in Hamburg | In-Person Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Join us in reliving the “Hamburg Days” of three working class lads from Liverpool\, who spent many a “hard days night” in seedy night clubs all along the notorious Reeperbahn between 1960 and 1962\, playing American rock ‘n roll to some of the toughest crowds in all of Europe. \nJohn Lennon once remarked\, “I may have been raised in Liverpool\, but I grew up in Hamburg.” Sentiments also attested by bandmates Paul and George. \nAn experience which made them as a band before returning to England and a recording contract. In time\, setting off a global revolution not only in music and fashion but in raising a “peace and love” consciousness the world over. \nIt was the Beatles who would significantly influence the decade known as the “Sixties”\, and it all began in Hamburg–where they also met another Liverpudlian named Ringo!
