Trois spectacles à guichets fermés l'année dernière!
Le public a encensé le spectacle des Caverners, Ultimate Musical Tribute to the Beatles. Jusqu’ici, le concert se termine toujours de la même façon : les gens crient, tapent du pied et en redemandent. Tous les aspects du spectacle sont faits dans la plus grande authenticité, même l’accent liverpoolien. Les costumes et le matériel sont la réplique parfaite de ceux des Beatles, des amplificateurs British Vox aux guitares Rickenbacker et à l’incontournable batterie Ludwig de Ringo Starr.
