A Cavern Dream....

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Feb 26, 2017

"There they all were, five lads young, and fresh,
a raw talented rock band, by the name of Marrakesh.
Four guitarists, and a drummer, on the immortal Cavern stage did play,
as they sang out, Hey Jude, they just blew us all away!
The three lads from Kirkby, also the two Widnes boys,
belted out Voodoo Child like Hendrix, oh what a brilliant noise!
Three talented young bands, all part of The Rock School,
put on a truly great show, the Cavern crowd thought they were really cool.
I felt so very, very proud, watching my young grandson play,
Charlie Milne on lead guitar, you really did make my day."
