Video: 'The Beatles Live At The Cow Palace, San Francisco, USA (Wednesday 19th August 1964)'

(Wednesday, August 19, 1964, 9:29-10:02 p.m. PDT; during The Beatles’ 1964 North American tour) — The Beatles launched their first North American tour before a sell-out crowd of 17,130 yelling their lungs out tonight at the Cow Palace in Daly City, California, near San Francisco.

It was the first of 32 shows in 25 cites over 31 days.

After the show, rather than stay another night in San Francisco, they returned to the airport for a short flight to Las Vegas.
