They couldnt agree on who would be the headliner. So, they decided that the show would have an interval. The Stones closed the first half, and the Beatles the second half.
The Stones always comes first

The NME concert for 1966 must have been something else.
Along with the Beatles and the Rolling Stones,
also playing were the Who, the Yardbirds, the Small Faces,
Herman's Hermit's, Spencer Davis Group, the Fortunes,
Roy Orbison, Alan Price, Cliff Richard, the Seekers, the Shadows,
Sounds Incorporated, Dusty Sprigfield, the Walker Brothers,
the Overlanders, Crispian St. Peters, and...Davy, Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Titch
On paper the best gig of all time. The Beatles, The Stones, The Who, The Small Faces and The Yardbirds qualify that.
Pity the Beatles and Stones both wouldnt allow their performances to be filmed.

The Beatles' final UK concert performance, if I'm not mistaken (the Rooftop gig wasnt a 'concert' per se)

That really is one incredible bill, right enough. Probably the best five bands in the country at the time (maybe even the world) - all of whom have remained legendary. And Dusty as well. Hell, even Cliff & The Shadows - for all his cheesiness, still a legendary act and a great pairing.

I think the 1968 NME Show also had The Saint himself and future James Bond Roger Moore as the presenter.
