A brick was stolen from the 'wall of fame' outside Liverpool's Cavern Club.
Bill Heckle, who owns The Cavern nightclub, claims a group of teenagers stole a brick laid by Adele in 2011.
Mr Heckle shared CCTV with the ECHO which appears to show a group of young people taking a brick from the wall.

The incident happened at around 5pm on Monday, January 17 and Mr Heckle said he chose not to report it to police as he would like to settle the matter "amicably".
Mr Heckle said: "I could have reported this to police [...] but I don't want to explore that route at the moment.
"I would rather the young people involved, or their parents and teachers, made contact with me. I hope that the brick can be returned and that we can settle this amicably.
"If that is not possible then I will be happy to settle the matter in the courts."
Mr Heckle said the brick put in the wall by Adele has special significance.
He said: "Adele laid the brick after she sang in the club in 2011. I remember that day because she spent an hour at the bar talking to me about her beloved Spurs who were playing Everton at Goodison on the same day.
"She said that she planned on singing to the team later that night in their hotel. Unfortunately for her Everton got a later winner."
Mr Heckle said the wall of the Mathew Street club has a special history.
He said: "We unveiled the wall in 1997 during a special ceremony to celebrate all the legends who played at the club in the old days.
"And then we started a new tradition with stars who played at the club putting a brick in the wall with their name on it.
"Oasis , Jake Bugg and the Artic Monkeys are all on there so we are talking about the biggest names in the business.
"This wall is a major attraction and brings a lot of tourists to the city centre."
Mr Heckle said yesterday's incident was a major inconvenience.
He said: "They caused a lot of damage to the wall and we had to repair it immediately. Anyone with information about this matter can call the Cavern on 0151 236 9091."
