I remember Paul, casually, at the very last minute, saying, ‘Have you got your cassette recorder with you?’ and I said, ‘Yes, of course.’ Paul then said, ‘Tape it will you? What led to such a shift in their public image and what is the legacy of Candlestick Park.
If you find one lemme know!! I HAS to be a personal shot that they kept for themselves…… They all 4 went to the front of the stage and turned their backs to the audience and “pop”. They were booked to perform in the Nippon Budokan arena, which was customarily used for Marital Arts exhibitions and not for musical performances. I loved your story honestly and glad you can relate.Oh, forgot to mention…last year on July 7th, i went to Capitol Records in Hollywood to celebrate Ringo’s birthday. Even seeing the band from a distance was thrilling.
Has anyone seen any picture from this concert? Share. Candlestick Park was in the city limits of San Francisco.
It will vanish and shrink. Lasting a total of 19 performances, with 17 shows in American venues and two in Canada, it was plagued with backlash rega… Reliving my teen years and even Neil Diamond Tribute and The Beach Boys Tribute Band. saw McCartney at the final Candlestick performance and again last night at Sacramento. I was 16 at this concert in 1966. There was a young lady in front of me, about 20 years old, who jumped and screamed for the whole show and she would occasionally turn and apologize to me. The description of your friend sounds just like me! My father took me and my friend (who got lost in the crowd!)
My brother just gave one to my best friend who went to that show for his birthday. The …
I have only one.Thank you to Happy Nat for providing that Day Tripper clip.They did bring their own cameras to document the end of 4 years of gruelling world tours and everything else. 1966 was only a few years removed from the JFK assassination, so such fears were not completely irrational, especially considering the previous “bigger than Jesus” controversy that was only a few months old at the time.There was also the fact that the band’s music had changed so much from the Cavern and early Beatlemania days. Candlestick Park is about 5 miles south of downtown. The Usual … Broke my first ankle wearing Beatle Boots…….Remember……..I was at that concert too – 11 years old.
And you would be the drummer, and Ron Gonzalez was your bass player.
Even when they To their casual fans, the Beatles “began” in the early months of 1963, when EMI released their first 45 single “Please Please Me.” The song was their second single but the first one to top the charts in the UK. And those young girls crying for their idols was so hilarious. He also made a single copy, which was kept in a locked drawer in Barrow’s office desk. Only 25,000 tickets were sold despite the fact that Candlestick Park has a capacity for 42,500 people. The stage was located just behind second base on the field, and was five feet high and surrounded by a six-foot high wire fence.The compère was ‘Emperor’ Gene Nelson of KYA 1260 AM, and the support acts were, in order of appearance, The Remains, Bobby Hebb, The Cyrkle and The Ronettes.
Photographers and the press were not allowed down there.
The best thing to do is take them to an auction house that does regular rock and pop memorabilia sales, and get one of their experts to provide a valuation. I was too young to ever see them and for this I’m jealous and sad…the rebel Rolling Stones almost broke too thank god their still going strong drawing huge crowds of all ages to their concert imagine nearly fifty years. What a night in musical history and a night none of us will ever forgetI was 10, My aunt and uncle was leaving for London, mom and dad said my brother and I where going to the airport to say good by, Did not want to go but this is my story, Arrived there to see all these girls screaming, we where following our parents to an area of the airport that was under construction, all first class passengers where there, My aunt and uncle and yes George, Paul, John and Ringo, I wonder if they remember me or even this requirement due to the crowded airport, yes I was the last to see this group together in this country. I also remember that Bobby Head (Sunny) also performed, as did The Shirells, The Cyrcle (Red Rubber Ball), and I think The 13th Floor Elevator (Resurrection Shuffle).
