The Savage Young Beatles In Hamburg

A different sort of 1960s "Beetle" hanging around the entertainment district.

Rockin' out for a Beatles history safari

Indra

The Beginning of The Beatles in Hamburg

First night on stage in Hamburg.

Hasn't changed too much over the decades - the club (not me!)

The Fab 5 - John, George, Pete, Paul and Stu

Plaque outside Indra commemorating the Beatles first appearance

Bambi Kino

Beatles First Living Quarters in Hamburg (not the best!) located behind an "adult" movie theater

Only sign noting the future Fabs had once been residents

George Harrison preparing for show at the Indra

Looks like John forgot his pants...

Beatle Debbie waiting for "the boys in the band" to return

Paul McCartney and John Lennon "relaxing" after a show at the Indra!

And left his newspaper!

Kaiserkeller

The House Band played 6 to 7 hours a night, 7 nights a week (and got pretty good!)

Mak Show! Working on their stage presence and building excitement.

Pete, Paul (as piano man), George, John and Stu on stage

Rory Storm & His Hurricanes (with Ringo Starr) had top billing. Beatles were second and Dave... well, he's just happy to be there.

Star Club

The Big Time. On stage performances cut to "only" 3.5 hours a night!

High energy rock 'n' roll kept teenagers on the dance floor

Only months away from the start of "Beatlemania"

The club is gone but the memories live on!

Nighttime on The Reeperbahn

It was a FAB end to another Beatles history safari

Thanks to Karaoke I was the "house band" for about 2.5 minutes on the Reeperbahn. I hereby nominate myself as "The 5th Beatle". Keep laughing!

Dave and Debbie outside the Kaiserkeller, 36 Grosse Freiheit Street

Gretel & Alfons Cafe. Paul McCartney returned during his 1989 world tour and paid off the Beatles outstanding bar tab of 50 marks. He wrote "Paid in full" on the receipt - and it is still on display.
