Cavern Club is closed permanently (sign is still on building but the club has been replaced), so I recommend Abbey Road. In addition, Abbey Road recommendations recommended & only go if you are celebrating a birthday. They wasted 10 minutes of the set singing happy birthday to each person.

I took the lead photograph in this article as part of a series on The Silver Beats that I did for Rolling Stone some years back. This article must have culled it from my website when my full article was on-line on my website. The band has sadly broken up in the last year (2008-2009), but there is still great Beatles to be heard in Roppongi. In a short film I made about The Silver Beats, Eric (John) talked about his dream of someday playing in Liverpool. I’m happy to report that his band did get to play there and they even had a number of US dates supporting The Killers. More info? Contact me via http://www.jasonwhiton.com or http://www.spyvibe.com.

To the best of my knowledge, Roppongi’s Abbey Road started up in the mid-1990s. Cavern Club was well established before I discovered it in 1992!

Would love to get an update on both venues and current status of the bands… I miss Chappy!

Nice post, I was glad to discover it while Googling for the Cavern. My wife and I spent a whole night at the Cavern back in 2000 while on our honeymoon. We planned to go club-hopping that night, but ended up staying at the Cavern the entire evening we had such a good time (we’re huge Beatles’ fans). We loved the disconnect of hearing the band banter in Japanese then launch into note- and phonetic-perfect renditions of Beatles songs! Glad to know the club is still going strong. Was Abbey Road there in 2000?

1966 . The Beatles ‘ concert at Cleveland Stadium on August 14 , 1966 was the third stop on a 14 city tour of North America,
a tour that would prove to be the group’s last. The concert, emceed by WIXY’s ( Big Jack Armstrong), was attended by 20,000
rabib fans; so excitable , in fact , that show was stopped midway as 2,500 fans rushed field. the Beatles were hustled off to
backstage trailer for twenty minutes while order was being restored. Incidentally . a similar incident occured during the group’s
previous visit two years earlier on September 15, 1964 at the Public Auditorium. The Jontzen Brothers Printing Company pressman

were printed and distributed. ( Note the misspelling on the word ¨other¨) To date only three cardbord poster for the Cleveland Concert
