Great stuff. I'd love to know more about this. What did they sing? Could Sylvia hear any of the music? Which was her favourite Beatle, and why? Maybe other contributors will share memories of the Beatles' concerts and we can build up a picture of why "Beatlemania" was a worldwide phenomenon.

What a great thing to have experienced.. I wonder if Sylvia's ears were ringing because of the screaming or the music?
