The Beatles performed at Wolverhampton’s Gaumont Cinema on 14 March 1963.
John Lennon missed a third concert on this day due to his persistent cold. He rejoined The Beatles onstage the following night in Bristol.
The Beatles’ setlist on this tour, in which they appeared on a bill with Tommy Roe and Chris Montez, was: ‘Love Me Do’, ‘Misery’, ‘A Taste Of Honey’, ‘Do You Want To Know A Secret’, ‘Please Please Me’, and ‘I Saw Her Standing There’.
The group returned to Wolverhampton on 19 November 1963, again playing at the Gaumont Cinema.

It would be fascinating to see a live clip of the “Threetles” (sans John) back in ’63! I assume none exists.
