August 15, 1965-Beatles at Shea Stadium

[Maccagirl]

40 years ago tonite. Man, that must have been something to be a part of!

[MichiganVote]

1. Sisters were there, they loved, loved, loved it

[jpgray]

2. A constant jet engine roar of shrieking teenaged girls

I'll pass. :D And was that the concert where one of them mentioned he liked jelly beans, so they were pelted on all sides with the suckers throughout the concert?

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

3. Jelly babies...

If time travel were only possible...I'd love to have seen them back in the day at the Cavern...before they hit America.

8. That was the sound of young America

having an orgasm.

4. Have you watched...

The Beatles Anthology? There's this one part of the movie where it talks about Shea stadium and there's a voice montage of a bunch of different people related to the Beatles going "Shea stadium..Shea stadium..Shea stadium"..

One day I was in the car with my cousin and we happened to drive by Shea and she started going "shea stadium..shea stadium..shea stadium" and I knew exactly what she was talking about. :rofl:

5. Grand Funk sold out Shea faster than did the Beatles.

But I digress into conceivably meaningless temporal trivia.

Yes, I would have loved to have been there. Too bad they didn't have bigger sound systems back then. ;)
