Did you know that the Stones were at Shea Stadium for the Beatles show? (Well, at least for a little while.)
We went there on the yacht that was used for their press promo. The yacht pulled into the yacht basin near Shea Stadium and we walked from there to the stadium. We got down to the dressing room and it was jammed with all types of people. It was total chaos and a funny thing happened. It was myself, the Stones, and my uncle Allen Klein. I pushed ahead through the crowd and came to a security guy guarding the dressing room and got passed him. They stopped my uncle and he called out to me.. I looked back and yelled to the guard, “he’s with me” and they let him through. It was iRonic, as I was no one and we all laughed about it later. The Stones spent a little time with the Beatles and then we went out to watch the show. We were standing back behind a wire fence and we couldn’t hear a thing. The crowds of fans were screaming so loud that you couldn’t hear the music.. so we left.
