Ticket to ride: a trip to Beatleville
10 years ago
General
So, as I said in my last journal, I made my way to Liverpool to watch Beatles tribute acts perform at the Cavern Club as part of International Beatleweek! It was fantastic to look around the historic venue, and some fantastic bands performed!
Oh, and I also got to hang out with
FoxAmoore ^_^
Seriously, I wasn't hoping or expecting him to ask if I could come over and spend a bit of time together, and this isn't something that happens often, what with him being Scottish and me being from Yorkshire. Only other times we've got to hang out were at ConFuzzled 2012, 2013, and 2015. Obviously, I jumped at the opportunity. It was excellent to share our stories. And, of course, Fox had his musical duty to fulfill, as keyboard player for McDonald's Farm, a Beatleweek perennial. Fox certainly had his fans, and he seemed to know a lot of the acts at the Cavern personally. It could be said that his supporters were on Fox name terms with him. His vulpine identity transcended the fandom!
I took plenty of photos from my time at the Cavern, check them out! I also recorded a couple of videos: here's Fox Amoore performing a soundcheck, and here's the band performing Lovely Rita. These were mostly for the benefit of
Cosmik (who was quite the jealous bearcat!), but I thought I may as well share them with all of you!
Footnote: now having visions of Bandthro performing at the Cavern. One can imagine...
