RE: Extra Credit Questions
Correctly concluded, Rob!
The concert took place on September 11, 1964 during their first US tour. When the Beatles got to know that the promoters planned to have a segregated audience, John Lennon said: “We never play to segregated audiences, and we aren’t going to start now. I’d sooner lose our appearance money.” The stadium was sold out, so the promoters obliged. In all contacts then they had a passage to "not be required to perform in front of a segregated audience". The entire story here including videos is well worth reading and checking out: https://www.openculture.com/2020/06/when...-1964.html Rob, you win a trip to Jacksonville in a yellow submarine! |
