The Rolling Stones

On August 8, 1964, The Rolling Stones performed a notable live concert at the Kurhaus in Scheveningen, Netherlands. This performance came shortly after the release of their self-titled debut album, "The Rolling Stones," which was launched in April 1964. The band was rising in popularity, propelled by hits like "Time Is on My Side" and "The Last Time." The performance is infamous not only for the intensity of the band's live show but also for the chaos that ensued, culminating in a riot. The audience's fervor and passion nearly led to the destruction of the venue, highlighting the Stones' impact on the British Invasion and their growing reputation as a live act. This event was indicative of the band's wild early performances and foreshadowed their journey to becoming one of rock music's cornerstone acts.
