John Lennon Experience - John Lennon Tribute Act
The world's most acclaimed John Lennon tribute artist & band, the show, subtitled 'Imagine The Dream', featuring the songs that Lennon might have performed on the world tour he was planning at the time of his shocking murder in December 1980.
This will undoubtedly be the closest and most intimate musical portrait of the ultimate British rock legend, complete with a first class band. Not to be missed!
Gary Gibson was the founder member of 'The Cavern Beatles' backin 1980 along with band members Graham Pollcok, John Ward, and Andrew Swarbrick, playing at venues through out the north. By 1981 the band began to appear in London at venues such as The Rock Garden, Dingwalls, Golden Lion,Dublin Castle, Half Moon and the Hippodrome, the band also made regular television appearances, 'Stars In Their Eyes' 'Pebble Mill' 'The Late Late Show' with Gay Byrne, who introduced the real Beatles on Granada television back in the 1960's, and again on a 'Stars InTheir Eyes Christmas Special' The band also performed for a six week stint on Norway Television.
On the last Pebble Mill the 'Cavern Beatles' performed for George Martin who, along with Victor Spinnetti, talked about the making of 'Hard Day's Night'. At a racing fraternity party Sir Elton John asked Gary if he could get up and sing with the band. "What shall we sing?" Gary asked. "Lets do that one I did with John (Lennon) at Madison Square Gardens 'I Saw Her Standing There' replied Elton. Afterwards, back stage, Elton commented "I can’t believe it, you look so much like John. You’ve got to be related"! |
