Original vintage program for a Beatles concert at K.B. Hallen in Copenhagen, Denmark, on June 4, 1964, sixteen pages, 8 x 10.25, signed on the centerfold in ballpoint by John Lennon and by substitute drummer Jimmie Nicol. In fine condition, with light handling wear. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.
At the start of the Beatles' 1964 world tour, drummer Jimmie Nicol replaced Ringo Starr from June 3-15 while the latter was recovering from tonsillitis and pharyngitis. Nicol's first concert with the Beatles took place on June 4th at the KB Hallen. He was given the distinctive Beatle mop-top hairstyle, put on Starr's suit, and went on stage to an audience of 4,500 Beatles fans. McCartney recalled: ‘He was sitting up on this rostrum just eyeing up all the women. We'd start 'She Loves You': [counting in] 'one, two', nothing, 'one, two', and still nothing!’ Their set was reduced from eleven songs to ten, dropping Starr's vocal spot of ‘I Wanna Be Your Man.’ McCartney teasingly sent Starr a telegram saying: ‘Hurry up and get well Ringo, Jimmy is wearing out all your suits.’
