  • A History of International Beatleweek (PDF)
    The History of International Beatleweek International Beatleweek celebrates the most famous band in the world in the city where it was born – attracting thousands of Fab Four fans and dozens of bands to Liverpool each year. The history of Beatleweek goes back to 1977 when Liverpool’s first Beatles Convention was held at Mr Pickwick’s club in Fraser Street, off London Road. The two-day event, staged in October, was organised by legendary Cavern Club DJ Bob Wooler and Allan Williams, entrepreneur and The Beatles’ early manager, and it included live music, guest speakers and special screenings. In 1981, Liz and Jim Hughes – the pioneering couple behind Liverpool’s pioneering Beatles attraction, Cavern Mecca – took up the baton and arranged the First Annual Mersey Beatle Extravaganza at the Adelphi Hotel. It was a one-day event on Saturday, August 29 and the special guests were Beatles authors Philip Norman, Brian Southall and Tony Tyler. In 1984 the Mersey Beatle event moved to St George’s Hall where guests included former Cavern Club owner Ray McFall, Beatles’ press officer Tony Barrow, John Lennon’s uncle Charles Lennon and ‘Father’ Tom McKenzie. Cavern Mecca closed in 1984, and after the city council stepped in for a year to keep the event running, in 1986 Cavern City Tours was asked to take over the Mersey Beatle Convention. It has organised the annual event ever since. International bands started to make an appearance in the late 1980s, with two of the earliest groups to make the journey to Liverpool being Girl from the USA and the USSR’s Beatle Club.

Do you all remember this? My recollection was a two-day, sort of rock band celebration in the grassy mall area in front of the Chapel, Baxter Hall and Sparks Center…Kind of a “mini Woodstock”... Phil Dragoo (right?) was one of the organizers… Great time...One of many great times at Wabash during those years. Whoa…Reading that made me appreciate even more that my time at Wabash was priceless, and reminded me I need to get a letter out to my Class. (If any of you have Ralph’s Mother memories, email me!). Hope all your summers were safe and fun. The College is doing well and getting better all the time. I wasn’t able to make the latest Class Agent’s meeting, but John Bridge attended as Rep for the Class of ’72, and reported that all is well. I was on campus earlier this year, and the place looked beautiful...If you haven’t been to C-ville in a while you should make the visit. At our 45th Big Bash, I know we’ll break attendance records…2017 will be here quickly! I have some news from a few of you which I’ll share in a moment.
