1. My Mom and Dad went to that

They were not yet my Mom and Dad at the time.

2. I did too -

I was in the nosebleed section and couldn't even hear them. They looked like ants in suits from up there.

3. Cool!

That must have been awesome. Even in the nosebleed seats.

4. From the moment they stepped out there on the baseball diamond hehe -

the screams started and did.not.stop.

5. Has anybody ever released the original footage on DVD?

I hope so. I mean I'm glad we have it on You Tube, but a regular DVD would be cool.

6. Looks like there is -

I also looked at the website of the NJ-based guys who do Beatles Fans conventions in NYC/NJ and elsewhere and was surprised they didn't have a dvd for this for sale. They do have lots of other stuff though. http://www.thefest.com/

10. Was it the screaming that caused you to not hear them, or a weak sound system?
