Best Fest 11 – Casbah Coffee Club 60th Anniversary – Mersey Beat and the Beatles on Saturday the 24th of August 2019 at the Casbah Coffee Club featuring, The Pete Best Band, The Beryl Marsden Band, Karl Terry and the Cruisers, The Connection, The Threetles and the Dolomites.

After Best's mother, Mona Best (1924–1988), moved to Liverpool in 1945, she opened the Casbah Coffee Club in the cellar of the Bests' house in Liverpool. The Beatles (at the time known as the Quarrymen) played some of their first concerts at the club. The Beatles invited Best to join on 12 August 1960, on the eve of the group's first Hamburg season of club dates. Musically, Best has been judged to have had a limited rhythmic vocabulary that was seen as holding the other three band members back from their collective musical growth. Martin (see above) deemed Best's drumming to be inadequate for a recording. As stated in Bob Spitz's 2005 biography: "All Pete could do was play 'Fours,'" a style of drumming that uses kick drum notes on every quarter note to hold down the beat.
