It *is* the '65 concert (Aug 15), but actually *today* it's 35 years ago they played there second concert at Shea! (and btw... Shea's trying to be less sarcastic... 
)

cheers Ottox 
... and what is yout guess, but i assume you know it exactly
you know, the advantage of being ringo was that you don't have to pay for the Beatles' concerts

Lucky ringo! 
It wouldn't be fair to give the correct answer, would it?

Just to give you some kind of idea...
On the cover of "The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl" there are two tickets. Guess what! You could get a ticket for the concert 37 years ago *today* for 4$
(They didn't play any concerts on the 23th in '65! )

ok, then i go for 4,20$ instead of 42$
darn, nowadays i have to pay 4$ if i want to hear my friend Matze play the drums (they do some pretty good Beatles cover songs )

Where did you find those prices?
In the "Anthology" book, page 186, it says $4.50, 5.10, 5.65.
In "The Complete Beatles Chronicle", page 200, there's a picture of a ticket with the price on it:
Established Price $5.00
Federal Tax .40
City Tax .25
Total $5.65
