Tickets<\/a> for the event are now available for presale. They will be on public sale starting Friday, July 10, at 10 a.m.<\/p>\nBest known for being the drummer for the iconic band The Beatles, Starr recently celebrated his 86th birthday on Tuesday, July 7. Some of the numerous honors he has earned throughout his esteemed career include being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, winning an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score as a member of The Beatles for the film \u201cLet It Be\u201d and being knighted by the British Royal Family.<\/p>\n
The Beatles, as a matter of fact, kicked off their American tour in August 1964 with two sold-out shows at the Forest Hills Stadium. Stevie Wonder opened for the band at the first show, according to the stadium\u2019s website. The Beatles played a set that included \u201cTwist and Shout,\u201d a cover of Chuck Berry\u2019s \u201cRoll Over Beethoven\u201d and \u201cLong Tall Sally.\u201d<\/p>\n
Whether anyone heard the performance is another thing; the stadium noted that the crowds, mostly filled with teenage girls at the time, did not stop screaming in delight throughout the Fab Four\u2019s roughly hour-long show.<\/p>\n
