The first day in which The Beatles played in Spain was in Madrid to the second of June of 1965. Only 5.000 people went to the concert to see them in the plaza of the bulls in “Las Ventas”. Many people couldn’t go because of the control of the police or because their parents didn’t let them. John Lennon was the one incharge of singing that night. The people who went to see them said there was many police control surrounding the “Las Ventas” but also many stations of the subway. Days before the concert a group of fans of The Beatles destroyed many things of the surroundings where they where going to act because they thought the ones who were going to act was an American  group and not the Beatles. The price of the entries were 400 pesetas if you wanted to sit in a chair and 75 if you wanted to sit in the sand.

Live sound was bad, maybe it was because teams of sound were Spanish. But finally the concert was amazing.

“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.”

The Quarrymen was a British bans originally formed in Liverpool (1956). Three of the members of The Beatles participated in John Lennon´s out band The Quarrymen (John, Paul McCartney, George Harrison)

But before the band was name The Quarrymen they were The Blackjacks because there was another band with the same name, so Pete Shotton suggested renaming the group The Quarrymen.

His first recordings were the song “ That Be the Day” and “In Spite of All the Danger”, composed by Harrison and Paul. When Stuart  joined the group, it was renamed The Beetles, but more later the name change to The Silver Beetles, to be called in 1960 The Beatles.
