40 years ago today

I was at the Beatles concert at Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington, Minnesota. The fans (me included) screamed so loud that I'm not sure I heard more than a few notes of each song they played. It was an event I'll never forget.

Anyone else have any Beatle concert memories?

1. No Beatles concert memory, unfortunately.

:(

But a Beatles memory for sure. I remember after seeing them on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, I was hanging from the pipes in the basement (sort of a den) proclaiming to my family my love for Paul McCartney. Still do! :loveya:

2. I didn't attend the concert, but I recall that it was a big scandal

because the Beatles were found with some teenage girls in their hotel room.

We played the radio in home ec. class, and whenever a Beatles song came on, everyone would stop sewing or cooking and listen raptly.
