From Prescot to Paris: Alan Noone's 1960s Merseybeat Journey

BACKSTAGE PASS: Alan Noone's 1960s Merseybeat Journey & The Riot Squad. Join Prescot-born musician Alan Noone for an exclusive backstage pass into the 1960s Merseybeat explosion, his days drumming for The Riot Squad, and the incredible journey of bringing that iconic era back to life at the Shakespeare North Playhouse. In this in-depth, candid interview, Alan shares untold stories from the heart of the 1960s Northwest music scene. From playing Liverpool's legendary Cavern Club 21 times to freezing in the back of a Bedford van on Queen's Drive, this is a deep dive into local history and the reality of being a working musician during the golden age of British rock and roll. We also discuss Manfred Kofman's book Some Other Guys, the cultural shift between Lancashire towns and Liverpool, and the creation of Alan's highly anticipated live music show returning to Prescot's authentic cockpit theatre.
