Shea Stadium

Opened in April 1964, as a multi-purpose sports stadium and home for the New York Mets (baseball), the New York Jets (American football) and also for the New York Yankees (baseball) for 2 seasons. Closed in Fall 2008 and demolished.

It was the site for first ever outdoor rock concert, The Beatles, in August 1965 (55,000+ in attendance-mostly screaming). Concert promoters now had a new way to present music "live", in warmer weather, making way for the open-air spectacular events like Monterey Pop, Woodstock, Isle of Wight and Live Aid.
