🎸 The Day John Met Paul: Where It All Began

Updated: Jul 1

Hi again, friends!

One of the most magical moments in Beatles history happened at St. Peter’s Church Hall in Woolton—the very place where John Lennon met Paul McCartney for the first time in 1957.

The Moment That Changed Music History

You’ll stand exactly where it all started. Imagine John on stage with The Quarrymen, and Paul being introduced to him shortly after. What followed that day changed the course of music forever.

On our Lennon and McCartney Songwriting History Tour, I’ll guide you through this emotional and iconic setting, sharing stories and little-known details that bring that day vividly to life.

From Woolton to the World

We’ll explore the local area, including the beautiful St. Peter’s Churchyard, where you’ll see Eleanor Rigby’s gravestone and hear about the real-life connections to the Beatles’ lyrics.

Experience It For Yourself

I’ll take you to the exact spots that inspired the lyrics and the lifelong friendship between Lennon and McCartney. It’s these early places, far from the screaming crowds, where their genius first grew.
