Ed Sullivan Show, February 1964
In January 1964, Beatles manager Brian Epstein contacted London
drum retailer Drum City to have a new Beatles logo drumhead
hand painted by local graphic artist Edwin “Eddie” Stakers, who had
painted Ringo's First logo drumhead for their upcoming first visit to
America. This logo drumhead was used for all three Ed Sullivan Show
appearances, the Washington Coliseum show and the two Carnegie
Hall concerts during the band's first American visit. After returning to
England, this drumhead was retired to EMI's Abbey Road Studios for
recording purposes and not seen publicly again.

MEET THE BEATLES
Ladies and Gentlemen... THE BEATLES! Washington Coliseum The First American Concert The Beatles' first-ever American concert occurred in Washington, D.C. on February 11, 1964, four days after their arrival in America. Tickets for the sold-out concert were $2, $3 and $5. Performing for just over eight thousand, mostly screaming fans at the Washington Coliseum, the group's thirty-one minute, twelve-song set included “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “She Loves You,” “All My Loving,” “Twist and Shout,” and “Please Please Me.” Also on the bill that night were Tommy Roe, the Chiffons, Jay and the Americans, the Righteous Brothers, and the Varavelles. When the show was over, John Lennon remarked, “Tonight was marvelous! Ridiculous! Eight thousand people all shouting at once. We were trying to shout louder than them with microphones and we still couldn't beat them!” The following day, The Beatles returned to New York City via train to perform two evening shows at Carnegie Hall. CBS captured the Washington, D.C. concert on film and presented it on March 14 and 15 as a closed circuit telecast in theaters around the country. Ladies and Gentlemen... THE BEATLES! Carnegie Hall After playing Washington, D.C., The Beatles returned to New York City on February 12 for two sold-out shows at Carnegie Hall. The Brianwoods, an American folk group with no connection to rock & roll, opened both the early and late show. The Beatles performed for little over a half hour at each, playing much of their Washington, D.C. set to the delight of some six thousand fans who were fortunate enough to have purchased tickets, priced $3 to $5.50. Despite playing one of the most esteemed concert venues in America, hearing The Beatles proved challenging at Carnegie Hall like it it would everywhere else the group performed in America over the next couple of years. Screaming fans and a primitive rock concert sound system prevented The Beatles' songs from arching over the screaming hysteria in the audience. |
