The Stones played more hockey arenas than they did football stadiums in 1975 but the difference is maybe 65/35.

A terrific book on the Beatles' 1966 tour is Ticket To Ride
by Barry Tashian. Tashian was in the Boston-based group the Remains
who were the opening act of the tour. Luckily, he kept
a day-by-day diary. The book is his diary, plus photos, and other
recollections of the tour, including the PA that was used.
Also, in 1966, at the indoor shows, the Beatles were doing
2 shows a day. MArk Lewisohn's The Complete Beatles Chronicle
gives the attendence of these gigs and most were not sold out.
Also, Sid Bernstein (the NY Shea promoter) has said the reason
the 1966 Shea concert wasn't a sell out was because
the Beatles played Philadelphia that year, too.
Something they did not do in 1965.
In fact, NYC was the only East Coast city they played in 1965.

Is "At The Hollywood Bowl" the only official "Live" Beatles product?

WOW! I have never met anyone who has seen the Beatles. Sssoul, please let us know some details, how was it?. It is really long ago, but please dig in your memory. Which year was it?

I have seen Paul once and it was a great concert, but I can imagine that together with John...
