SportsChump Summer Concert Series, Part IV: The Beatles at Shea Stadium (thanks to Ron Howard)

My mom tells the story of the night she did NOT go to see the Beatles at Shea Stadium. It was 1966. I was not yet a twinkle in her eye.

Her Beatles miss is eerily reminiscent of my Stevie Ray Vaughan rule which refers to the night I opted out of seeing Stevie Ray play only to have him die in a helicopter crash three months later. As we’ve discussed, if you have the chance to see an artist perform, err on the side of caution and go see the f**k**ing concert.

As it turns out, Mom missed a concert that changed the course of music history. Thanks to Ron Howard, mom finally got to see that show up close and personal.
