Tokyo Cavern Club

"Cok sasiracaksin bak" dediler.
"Sasiracak ne var ki bir grup Japon genci biraraya gelmis Beatles sarkilari soyluyorlar" dedim
"Yok yok cok sasiracaksin, gorursun bak..."

Cavern Club'dan iceri boyle diyerekten girdik...Sahneyi goren masamiza yerlestikten biraz sonra garson gelip siparisleri aldi...ben etrafa bakinirken barda Ringo, George ve Paul Guinness'lerini yudumluyorlardi.."Inanilmaz, gercekten andiriyorlar" dedim...en azindan kiyafetler ve saclar ayni..peki ya sesleri? "Gercege ancak bu kadar yakin olabilir" dediler..peki ya sive? Ingiliz degil ki bu cocuklar...Japonlar iste!.."Yok sive falan, goreceksin..."

Ama asil supriz onlar degilmis megersem...Ringo, George ve Paul harika birer kopya..ama sonra isiklar sondu ve sahneye ciktilar hep birlikte bu sefer yanlarinda John'la...

Asil supriz o: John Lennon... Japon John Lennon!!!...gercege ancak bu kadar yakin olabilir..ve o ses ve o yorum...saatlerce "You Really Got Hold On Me", "Little Child", "Hey Jude", "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", "Yesterday", "Let it Be", "Strawberry Fields" (defalarca) ve John'dan "Imagine"...

** Not: Bu yaziyi hazirlarken internette tesadufen grubun gercek ismine -The Silver Beats- ve bilgilerine rastladim...aynen kopyaliyorum:



The Silver Beats debuted in 2002 at The Cavern Club Tokyo, since then they've been playing nightly from 7:30 PM until 2:00 AM. The Cavern Club Tokyo in Roppongi is the most well known Beatles Live House in Japan that has been vastly popular to old and young for the past 24 years. Our repertory consists of 160 Beatles songs that covers the whole career of the Beatles from early tunes to the late ones. The member consist of Tadaaki Naganuma(B, Vo), Eric Mabuchi (G, Vo, Key), Hajime Kubo (G, Vo), Yukinobu Kabe (Dr). Of note here is Eric...


A dead ringer for John Lennon, young Eric is the No.1 player of Lennon's music in Japan. One feels the ghost of John Lennon when he is on stage, it's uncanny to think that he was born the same year John was killed. His musical skills, personality, and looks promises him a stardom, not only for his appearance, but for his movements and voice.

Frommer's Review
If you know your Beatles history, you'll know Cavern is the name of the Liverpool club where the Fab Four got their start. The Tokyo club features Beatles memorabilia and house bands performing Beatles music exclusively -- and very convincingly at that. Extremely popular with both Japanese and foreigners, it's packed on weekends -- expect long lines, or call to reserve a table. Hours are Monday to Saturday 6pm to 2:30am; Sunday and holidays 6pm to midnight.
