LENNON AT 70 - Featuring Sgt Pepper’s Only Dart Board Band and very special guests.
NOW AT: O2, Bournemouth, on Sunday 10th October 2010.

This event on Sunday 10th October has been switched to the O2 Bournemouth (formerly known as The Opera House).

With BBC Radio 2 looking to stage a Kirsty McColl event on this date at the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire, it was decided, in collaboration with O2, to move the concert to the O2 Bournemouth. This new venue is ideal for Sgt Pepper’s Only Dart Board Band and friends and it is only a stone’s throw from the beach house that John Lennon bought for his Aunt Mimi in her retirement.

Guests include, the wonderful Dodgy; James Warren from Stackridge and The Korgis; Mosquito-B, rising stars from Canada; and Alan Clayson, Beatles biographer and showman; and other names to be confirmed.

Also, Sgt Pepper’s Only Dart Board Band will be performing a Lennon at 70 show at The Castle Rocks, London, support from Mosquito-B, on the actual date of Lennon’s 70th birthday, 9th October.

Tickets already purchased for the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire will be refunded from the point of purchase. And look out for details of tickets for the Bournemouth and new London venue. Tickets will be less expensive than for the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire.

All profits from this fantastic concert will be going to the Nordoff Robbins charity for music therapy.

Commemorating the 70th anniversary of John Lennon’s birthday, the renowned Beatles tribute act, Sgt Pepper’s Only Dart Board will host a celebration of Beatles and Lennon music. The band famously held up the traffic in Abbey Road last year (see below), when they stood in for the Fab Four on the 40th Anniversary of the album photo shoot.

Remember: LENNON AT 70 date: 10.10.10.

TICKET BUYERS WARNING! Beware of internet sites and agencies selling tickets at grossly inflated black market prices!! They may be forgeries.

Sgt Pepper’s Only Dart Board Band – International Superstars!

On Saturday 8th August, Sgt Pepper’s Only Dart Board Band helped the British Beatles Fan Club celebrate the 40th Anniversary (to the minute) of the iconic album cover, by walking across the Abbey Road zebra crossing, in appropriate costume, before an audience of tourists and press.

The day finished with a full performance by the band including many favourite tracks from “Abbey Road” at Peter Parker’s Rock’n’Roll Club in London’s Covent Garden. The Club was formerly The Regent Studios, where The Kinks, The Stones, and various other Beatles wannabees once recorded.

Read a full review of the day with pictues and video on our "Abbey Road" page.
