'It's hot, it's sweaty, it's packed - that's its reputation from back in the day with The Beatles, and it's still a proper rock and roll venue,' said Jon Keats, Director of the Liverpool cellar bar where Britain's best-known musical export found fame.
LIVERPOOL, England - “It’s hot, it’s sweaty, it’s packed - that’s its reputation from back in the day with The Beatles, and it’s still a proper rock and roll venue,” said Jon Keats, Director of the Liverpool cellar bar where Britain’s best-known musical export found fame.
Keats shut his doors in March as the European wave of COVID-19 was hitting Spain and Italy hard and Britain was sliding towards its own crisis.Five months later, the club is still shut, the firm has lost more than 600,000 pounds and 20 of its 120 employees have been laid off. “I hate the phrase ‘new normal’, but you’ve got to look at your business differently,” Keats said ahead of the reopening that he hopes will prove the club can adapt and keep its loyal fanbase happy.
