About Us
The aim of The Beatles Fan Club is pretty straightforward. However, we thought we would write a page all about us, the people behind our project.
There are four team members, but we have others who help out. Obviously, we are all active on our website and The Beatles Forum.
The Beatles are the best band that has ever been or ever will be, of course. With this in mind, all the team members here met up online after meeting up on music websites. Around 1998, we were all scattered around until one member started a Beatles appreciation society.
Then we all had a chatroom in which to socialise. Of course, people would come and go; some have been around all this time, and new members join regularly.
Within a few years, we had a general music website and chatroom, but this had its problems. However, we learned how to deal with things much better and now have quite a few successful websites.
Some are music websites, but some concentrate on other things. Then, around 2014, we decided to go all out and create a Beatles-only website. However, this has taken a lot of time to create, as we wanted to ensure our facts were correct.
It has taken many hours of research, but eventually we put together something we all agree on and in the format we all like. So, what we have now is The Beatles Fan Club as the main website and The Beatles Forum as a subdirectory.
Beatles Information
All our main staff members here are old enough to remember The Fab Four from their humble beginnings until they broke up in 1970. Oh, in those days, we also had The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, The Hollies, etc. We even had Cilla Black, Tom Jones and Engelbert Humperdinck for the older generations. In fact, the 1960s gave us everything by way of music.
So, we are able to easily put together the information using first-hand knowledge. However, by using the internet correctly, the Beatles Anthology series and other sources are able to complete our own Beatles platform. Therefore, through our mutual interest in music, and The Beatles in particular, we now share our platform with the rest of the world.
Should you wish to correct anything on our website or forum, such as spelling mistakes or certain facts, get in touch with us. We are a friendly lot. In fact, it’s not all about us. On the contrary, it’s all about you! So, if you wish to share information with other Beatles fans around the world, contact us or use The Beatles Forum.
Obviously, we cover all The Beatles’ albums, from “Please Please Me” to “Let It Be.” With this in mind, we cover all The Beatles songs in the Fab Four record directory. Of course, we highlight The Beatles’ films too, from “A Hard Day’s Night” to “Let It Be.”
Credit Where Credits Due
Most of the material we use is in the public domain, of course. However, if we have not given credit where due, tell us, and we will either delete or adjust appropriately. But we stand by the “fair use” guidelines at all times.
So, if you think we have some material on our websites that you may own, you must prove that you are the actual owner of that material. Simply saying that you are the owner is not enough, of course. However, under the “fair use” guidelines, we use very little material, and any images we use are small and of low resolution.
Our Beatles Fan Club is here in appreciation of the best band that has ever been. We offer the following:
- Entertainment and information
- Reviews of all Beatles records, albums, films, people, etc.
- Beatles Forum
- Free newsletters
- Memberships to gain access to other areas.
Since we allow input from anyone with an interest in The Beatles, we do our best to vet the information. However, with a site as big as this, we can’t vet everything. So, if you see something out of order, please tell us.
Our online Beatles fan club has no connection to the Fab Four, Apple Corps etc. Indeed, we don’t imply that we have any connection.
About Us: In Summary
We provide The Beatles Fan Club, Cavern Club, and Beatles Forum in good faith and as a safe environment for all Fab Four fans. Therefore, this is your invitation to join us and help where you can. Indeed, by helping us to keep everything current, you are also helping the next generation of Beatles fans!
