When:

Short story:

At the start of their first tour of the USA, Peter And Gordon play at the New York World's Fair.

Full article:

Peter Asher : When we first came to the States in June of '64, we played the World's Fair. The whole thing was amazingly exciting. When we landed at the airport, there were crowds of screaming girls with signs, jumping all over us. Ant then, to get into this incredibly long black limousine, which by English standards is, like, a hundred miles long, was all so stunning.??I'll never forget that World's Fair because there was this body of water out in front of us. And all these girls jumped in the water fully clothed and swam across just to climb up on stage and be near us. It was a terrific time to be in the music business and a terrific time to be an English rock 'n' roller, and have girls tearing your clothes off. It was wonderful.
