14 May 1963

Concert:

Rink Ballroom, Park Lane, Sunderland, Durham

"My Dad, who is from Cheshire, used to watch the Beatles back in the days when they were the Silver Beatles and Priscilla White was working The Cavern cloak-room) and my mum once sat on the stage when they played Sunderland ice-rink and hand-jived while Paul McCartney was vaguely flirting with her... She ended-up having to take her heels off and walk home barefoot so it wasn't all glamour."
