History Picking - London Theater Torn Apart At Chuck Berry Concert, Two Beatles In Attendance, February 20, 1967

Two articles for this find - the first is from St Petersburg, Florida and describes the riot at the Brian Epstein owned Saville Theatre in detail.

The second article comes from the Glasgow Herald the following day and tells the story of how Epstein fired the guy who brought down the curtain and aggravated the audience.
