BEATLEISM at the Kicker
Starts: 21:00 On 16 August 2025 | Ends: 22:30 On 16 August 2025 [ Link ]
Okay now for something completely different from Avon, Villains and Airbus.
Whilst attempting to spend time with my Mum in England I thought it'd be nice to have a strum along with a my mate Zac, a lad from Australia who, like me, grew up with The Beatles.
Sometimes if we happen to be working together when we are the road in say Canada or wherever, we will sit and sing Beatles songs in our dressing room and it's so much fun.
Fun being the operative word in such a mad world.
So it'll either be amazing or funny - either of which will make for a very nice time.
