The Beatles are probably the most famous band in the history of rock and roll. It was certainly the beginning of the English Revolution, with many bands, that Brit-sound production, but none of them sounded much like the Fab Four.

The first Beatles concert at Shea Stadium in New York, a record for the period. The visit was55 600 people and the money has been made more than 57,000 pounds. Not bad for August 15, 1965.

Lennon was in the habit of comparing the Beatles to the Almighty, that eventually made him and the gang in a sea of ​​troubles in their early days.

Most people know the date of the concert and what is played there, but few know what it is that with the Beatles on the way to SheaStage. While there was nothing traumatic, it is important to note that despite their enormous popularity, and in total awe of what they were standing.

The view from the top was as if people were trying to escape from a sort of national disaster.

He would not let the Beatles landed in the stadium, on the roof so that the Earth was the World Expo. From there it was a hundred meters to the stadium in an armored truck Wells Fargo. Talk about security. Lap in the truck, which had no windows inside the stadium were the guys crazy banging on the outside of the truck, rocking back and forth. Aone point, George thought the truck would be reversed, and they were all blown to pieces. All this despite the weeks of preparation of plans, as the group stage.

Ironically, the concert, compared to modern times, was very low budget. The amps are Vox AC-30-years. The group was offered what he wanted to do for her, but she refused all offers. They wanted the equipment they have played ever used.As a result, the sound quality was not great. But the experience was one that will probably never be heard by anyone ever again.
