In August 1961 Bob Wooler noticed two girls dancing in rhythm at Aintree Institute. He considered them so good he invited them to dance on stage and suggested they form an act. Bob coined the name the Shimmy Shimmy Queens for them and with specially made dresses and the addition of another girl dancer, they made their debut at Litherland Town Hall. Further appearances followed at venues such as Aintree Institute and Hambleton Hall. The girls names were Marie Williams, Joan Pratt and Maureen O'Donnell.

Egads! Ponder for a moment how long Paul's been holding a guitar and singing.
Still doing it. Wow.

yup!.... but not on THIS night....
Thurs Aug 17 1961, St John's Hall. Tuebrook, Liverpool
"During this evening The Beatles played as a five-man outfit, augmented by Johnny Gustafson, a good-looking bassist with the Big Three, who were also on the night's bill. In frivolous mood, Paul moved around the stage and among the audience singing into a microphone sans guitar, in the style of the solo singers of the day."
