"the entire teenage population " lmao

[@GerardvanDam]

I had the luck to be at the Blokker concert and it was mind blowing. Driving back through the center of Amsterdam we saw the limo with the Beatles returning to the Doelen Hotel

[@raffaojeda]

really people around the world were crazy on the beatles, here is the prove in holland!!

[@judithpool8177]

I was 4 years old at the time and remember all people talked about was...THE BEATLES.

[@solaroberto7435]

Wooow! Beatles Forever!

[@mitchellspindell589]

Those Dutch women are stunning, just stunning.

[@octobersun221]

Holland has beautiful women

[@joeenglert]

awsome seeing jimmy nichol pounding the heck out of those drums

[@roseblake5803]

I miss Ringo!!!!!!

[@ernestturriziani2489]

I wish I was there

[@Fred.pSonic]

You can't help but think about poor but fortunate Jimmy Nicol. So poor for him the gig only lasted eight days, he was a temporary replacement after all. But so fortunate to be one of the select few to ever sit in with The Beatles. It had to be the experience of a lifetime. Wonder if he's still around, hope he's well.

[@Marse73]

No other group like them

[@Nic33rd]

Those crowds tho

[@user-ud9lg3zi9s]

Yeah ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊

[@fuckyt69]

The Beatles going Dutch.

[@doctorinsomnia5410]

Historical note: Jimmy Nicol was filling in for Ringo, who was in the hospital recovering from appendicitis.

[@pocopico7409]

Actually, it was tonsillitis.

[@propagafun4368]

2:50 man probably saw his country being occupied by germans, liberated by allies, and conquered again by the four Englishmen.

[@Egon_Nordwint]

that's when the world started to go crazy - it's been going on ever since... :-)))))

[@Dennis-qi1bz]

ringos changed a lot !

[@gardeniatradingcorp6828]

Hollow Moon , Are you referring to the drummer on this clip? If so, it’s someone else who’s substituting for Ringo, because Ringo was ill and couldn’t make it to the Holland

[@jacobtapianieto9655]

Indeed the drummer in the clip was Ringo's substitute during their tour in Holland and some other places (I guess): his name, Jimmie Nicol.

[@tinscale5236]

That's not Ringo but Ringo joined in 1962.
