The Beatles performed before 18,000 fans at the Convention Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
The night before they had stayed at the Lafayette Motel. At 2.15pm they left in the back of a fish truck, and a short distance from the Convention Hall they switched to their waiting tour bus.
After the show The Beatles left the venue in a laundry truck, as their limousine was too conspicuous. That night they stayed at the Marquis De Lafayette Hotel in nearby Cape May, where they stayed for a few days prior to their 2 September concert in Philadelphia.
During their stay in Atlantic City, John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote the song Every Little Thing, which appeared on the Beatles For Sale album at the end of 1964.

Good information. I was at the show. The only flaw is the reference to the Lafayette being six miles away. It was more like six blocks away.
By the way, the opening acts that night were the Bill Black Combo, the Exciters, and the Righteous Brothers.
