Line-up Discover The Beatles 1962-1970

From The Beatles Virtual Museum:

The Royal Tennis hall was the place for The Beatles concerts in Stockholm. The main attraction was Joey Dee (the American King of Twist!?!?!?) and the Starliters. Not The Beatles!?!? Three of the members of Starliters formed later the group The Young Rascals that under the years 1965-66 held a guitarist called Jimi Hendrix.

The first concert was at 17.00 and the second one started off at 20.00. The prices for the tickets was between just over $ 1.00 to a bit over $ 2.00

A film made during The Beatles performance under the concert was unfortunately stolen and has never been traced.

After the concert Joey Dee held a party at Foresta Hotel. Paul and George stayed at their hotel, Continental. Ringo and John went for the party.
