http://www.rarebeatles.com/photopg7/krla.htm ___________________________________________ YOUTUBE footage from the event 47 years ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsYQpGVhTiM _______________________________________________ FROM THE BEATLES' DIARY http://www.beatlesbible.com/1966/08/28/live-dodger-stadium-los-angeles/ The support acts for the concert were The Remains, Bobby Hebb, The Cyrkle and The Ronettes. The Beatles performed a set consisted of 11 songs: Rock And Roll Music , She's A Woman , If I Needed Someone , Day Tripper , Baby's In Black , I Feel Fine , Yesterday , I Wanna Be Your Man , Nowhere Man , Paperback Writer and Long Tall Sally . In 1966 the road was getting pretty boring and it was also coming to the end for me. Nobody was listening at the shows. That was OK at the beginning, but it got that we were playing really bad, and the reason I joined The Beatles was because they were the best band in Liverpool. I always wanted to play wi...

11th Stop, 15th Performance, BOBBY HEBB AT SHEA STADIUM with the Beatles August 23, 1966

BOBBY HEBB AT SHEA STADIUM! http://www.julienslive.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/93/lot/40199/?url=%2Fview-auctions%2Findividual-lots%2F%3Fpage%3D33%26buynow%3Dvffgfhugyrasznz The concert did not sell out, with 11,000 of the 55,600 tickets still available. Nonetheless, The Beatles made more money from their appearance than they had in 1965, receiving $189,000 - 65 per cent of the gross takings of $292,000. Curiously enough the second Shea Stadium concert had about 11,000 seats unsold. So it was a pretty unsettling time. And it was against this background that they said, 'Right, we definitely won't do any more. We are going to have a break and then we are going into the studio to make a record.' George Martin Anthology The support acts were The Remains, Bobby Hebb, The Cyrkle and The Ronettes. The Beatles performed 11 songs: Rock And Roll Music , She's A Woman , If I Needed Someone , Day Tripper , Baby's In Black , I Feel Fine , Yesterday , I W...

10th stop, 14th performance, Bobby Hebb, The Remains, The Beatles August 21, 1966 / 47 years ago today

  http://www.rarebeatles.com/photopg7/stlou66.htm Live: Busch Stadium, St Louis 8.30pm, Sunday 21 August 1966 (47 years ago) http://www.beatlesbible.com/1966/08/21/live-busch-stadium-st-louis/ After performing their postponed concert in Cincinnati at midday, The Beatles flew 341 miles to St Louis, Missouri, where they performed one show at 8.30pm. The concert took place at the Busch Stadium, and was seen by 23,000 people. The support acts were The Remains, Bobby Hebb, The Cyrkle and The Ronettes. The show took place in heavy rain, with a makeshift shelter over the stage to protect the musicians, although water still dripped onto the amplifiers. It was this incident which finally convinced Paul McCartney that The Beatles should cease touring. FACEBOOK PAGE FOR BEATLES IN ST.

Sid Bernstein, Rest in Peace

We met Sid Bernstein at the Intercollegiate Broadcast Seminar in New York some years back. He was very cordial, a very nice man to give of his time to the college students, for free. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Were-Going-to-See-The-Beatles-By-Berman-Garry-Bernstein-Sid-FRW-Lapid-/350859635402?pt=US_Nonfiction_Book&hash=item51b0dd2aca Sid Bernstein passed away.   He is part of Beatles' legend.   the group's manager Brian Epstein released a statement. This tour compares phenomenally well with last year's. It's much better all round this year, from the point of view of increased interest and we are actually playing to bigger audiences. Here in Los Angeles, for example, 36,000 people saw The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl. Today's concert at Dodger Stadium is attracting 10,000 more. People have been saying things about diminishing popularity, but all one can go by is attendances, which are absolutely huge. By the time we leave, 400,000 people will have ...

9th Stop, 13th Performance by Bobby Hebb & The Remains / Cincinnati - Bobby Hebb and the Remains play, the Beatles do not

Bobby Hebb, the Remains, the Cyrkle and the Ronettes all perform; the Beatles postpone Saturday night show due to rain; perform in Cincinnati on Sunday the 21st.   http://www.rarebeatles.com/photopg7/cinci66.htm This is the scheduled 8/20/66 show.... It's interesting to note that the show was rained out on the 20th and the fans had to bring back their stubs the next day (Sunday) for the show. The ticket stubs were then marked with a "magic marker" to cancel them. This explains why most of the stubs you see are marked! This was the only time during their three U.S. tours that they played 2 different venues in one day, and in different states!! (They played Busch Stadium in St. Louis that night). ________________________________________________________________________ The Beatles' Cincinnati concert is postponed http://www.beatlesbible.com/1966/08/20/beatles-cincinnati-concert-postponed/   3.30pm, Saturday 20 August 1966 ...
