The reason for the crowd control in my previous post.

This was day two of The Beatles concert at Crosley Field in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1966. The first day was cancelled due to rain and concern for the band's electronics. Now the next day, all were ready for the short 45 minute set. I was there, a 16 year old music fan to see our idols. I had a great time, but truth be told, we really never got a chance to clearly hear the band due to the enthusism of the crowd noise.

I spent some of the time taking pictures of the event, with my Exakta VXIIa and 58mm F2.0 Zeiss Biotar, using Kodak Plus X 135mm black and white film. This image was never posted until now.
