Keeping Up With the Beatles

When we last left the lads it was July 1963 and they were performing at the Winter Gardens, Margate with Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas. Today (7/13/1963) marked the end of the 5 day run. No time to rest, it's off to Blackpool.

Busy month - July 1963 - Gaining fame in England (Please Please Me #1 on UK Charts for 10th week), but still virtually unknown outside the UK.
