Fans remember the hot Beatles show

I was actually at this show. It rained like hell the night before and the concert took place at 12:00 noon on Sunday. Price of the ticket - $3.00. Oh my goodness. I was in 8th grade. We were from Texas, visiting relatives in Chicago and Detroit, but my dad finally relented and took me to see them at Crosley Field. Awesome! – Margaret

 I saw them 8/21/66 at Crosley Field, Cincinnati. We were rained out the previous night and the Fabs, even with McM having been reportedly sick that night, agreed to do a show the next sweltering afternoon.

The speakers run out from the second base stage were horns; the "flat' three hole kind. Being in the first row in an open air setting enabled me to hear the band.

They were rather ragged as I recall. I do remember them nailing "Paperback Writer" and "If I Needed Someone". Paul mangled "Yesterday" and I wondered if the key was too high for him that day. –“fabgear”

 My first concert was the Beatles in Cincinnati at Crosley Field. I was 13 years old. I remember my dad drove me there and picked me up after the concert. I went all by myself. Couldn't do that nowadays.  –anonymous

 The Beatles in Crosley Field didn’t even register because you couldn’t hear them and it was kind of like I was just in the same baseball field with them.  -  Tom

 I was there, couldn't see much. They got rained out Sat night, came back at noon on Sunday, thank goodness. Sunday was terribly hot, close to 100 and very humid. I felt sorry for them in those suits.  – Debbie
