MISLEADING[edit]

The Cavern club that exists now IS on the same site as the original. That is on the right as you walk up from North John Street. In the 1970's another club opened on the lefthand side calling itself The Cavern. The original club was not demolished due to the building of the Loop Line. The trains run much deeper. The building above was demolished and the cellars filled in with rubble. The original cellars were dug out and the arches rebuilt in the 1980's. The fake Cavern Club then called itself the Cavern Pub. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.65.116.174 (talk) 13:05, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I propose that Cavern Pub be merged into The Cavern Club. What notability the pub has is only in the context of its connections to the famous club, which is adjacent to it. Both venues have the same owners and share a web presence at the Cavern website. The pub's article is stubby and lacking in references, so information on it can be easily worked into the club's article. Jellyman (talk) 14:16, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Last night at the original Cavern Club[edit]

The original Cavern Club closed on the night of 28th May 1973 - the last band to play there (with joint top billing) was HACKENSACK, at that time signed to Island Records but The Pye Mobile Recording Studio was parked outside. Mysteriously, no recordings were ever released. 82.34.40.156 (talk) 09:10, 17 October 2017 (UTC) Stu Mills (I was there)[reply]
