On Tuesday, February 11, 1964 the Beatles gave their historic performance at the Washington Coliseum in Washington DC. Before the concert, they held a press conference on the stage (which was actually a boxing ring with the ropes taken off). Also on stage was Brian Sommerville, the Beatles' press agent at the time.
Sorry for the poor video quality of this clip, but the audio is pretty good. Not much survives of this newsreel, so it's a pretty rare video. Enjoy!
