LIVERPOOL BEATLE WEEK
Thursday 24 August 2006
Great music at the
Cavern Club and Cavern Pub.
Karl Lornie at the Cavern.
Wonderful, back in Liverpool again! And a week of wonderful crazyness is waiting for us...
Look here! What a fantastic programme with loads of famous artists...
Well, Terry Sylvester of The Hollies had to cancel. But what a great stand-in we got...
Gold Package - off course!
We went directly to the Cavern Pub at Mathew Street...
Jay
JAY MURREY gave us a great start of the week with solo versions of Beatles, Kinks and more. Seems familiar? Yes, he's also a member of The Mersey Beatles.
Down to the Cavern Club now and the Front stage...
Jan Owen
JAN OWEN. This nice New Yorker was back in Liverpool for his third consecutive year. No wonder, he's a very skilful guitar-player with a great voice. Also a very nice person.
Back to the Cavern Pub and an amazing George Harrison Tribute...
Sir Frankie Crisp and The Friars
Guiseppe, Davide, Francesco, Andrea & Mario
SIR FRANKIE CRISP & THE FRIARS. A great George Harrison Tribute band from Italy. One of the very best bands this year! And George is my favourite Beatle! Awesome!
See Laurie dancing...
Back to Cavern Front...
Lennon's Magic Elbow
Barney -
Lennon's Magic Elbow
LENNON'S MAGIC ELBOW. A real great band with fantastic vocals. Local lads hailing from Wallasey, Wirral.
Back From The USSR
SEE THE AMAZING VIDEO! 'Oh Darling'!! (4.5 MB)
BACK FROM THE USSR. A fantastic Russian band. Back to Liverpool for the third time! What a great voice, Alena!
Into the Cavern Back now...
The Brits
THE BRITS was the very first band ever from Chili to appear at Beatle Week. And they were good! No wonder, being one of the three winners in the Latin American Beatle Week in Buenos Aires out of an entry of over 60 bands!
Back to Cavern Front...
Las Bestias
Las Bestias
LAS BESTIAS. Formed in Argentina in 1996. Another Latin American band making their debut here in Liverpool. Were selected as one of three winning bands in the fifth Latin American Beatle Week. What an honour!
Nube 9 - Cloud 9
NUBE 9 - CLOUD 9. What a great name for this fine Argentinian band! The title of my favourite George Harrison album and one of his very best songs! Some of you surely recognized the girl from Beladies - Lucrecia.
Back to the show at Cavern Back and our new favourites...
Sir Frankie Crisp and The Friars
Another outstanding George tribute! Thank U!
Time for the main event...
Karl Lornie
Karl and his band
Karl Lornie Band
KARL LORNIE. A very talented and well-known musician, actor etc. And tonight he presented the very best Paul Tribute we've ever seen! The vocals and harmonies from the whole band were outstanding! And how great they played! Wow!
