SUMMARY:Ivor Davis: UP Close and Personal with The Beatles
DESCRIPTION:Three hundred years after the American Revolution Britain finally got revenge. Sixty years ago this year\, four funny looking lads with mop top haircuts from Liverpool\, England—named John\, Paul George and Ringo\, invaded the USA—and conquered the nation! Amidst oceans of tears and ear-blasting screams—but surprisingly no blood—they re-wrote Rock and Roll History. \nVentura County author and journalist Ivor Davis had a front row\, eyewitness seat as this amazing Revolution unfolded in all its gory detail. \nHe travelled with them\, ate with them\, drank with them\, and reveals the behind-the-scenes story of what unfolded from sea to shining sea in his 60th anniversary “Beatles and Me on Tour” book. It contains never before told tales of the conquering Beatles who are still worshipped in the USA—and even Ventura County! \nThe Beatles and their families are beloved millionaires\, and astonishingly they are still turning out hit records! \nDavis will be at the Museum of Ventura County January 25\, 2024 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm to reveal the blood\, sweat\, tears\, screams and inside stories of how it happened. And answer all the questions about the Fab Four—that you were afraid to ask! \n“Davis serves up the stories behind the stories as only an insider can\,” said the prestigious Publisher’s Weekly. \nGet Your Tickets Here \nRegistration:\nFree for Members\nNon-Member In-Person: $10\nNon-Member Zoom: $5 \ndoors open at 6 pm for refreshments
