This was 81 days after President Kennedy was cut down in Dallas. America was still numb. Still in shock. The Beatles came here and helped us to think maybe life could go in with some normalcy. Some fun. Even joy. God bless them for that. They were good sports and regular guys - not one but full of themselves. They were all naturally modest which added to their charm. I was in 2nd grade when JFK was shot. I remember the next 4 days like it was yesterday. I remember the Beatles too. God bless them all.

[@MariaElena51185]

YES! I was 12. Yes we were still mourning and in shock. I see what you’re saying, but sadly I also feel the Beatles, as spectacular as they were, were a cleverly placed distraction by the powers that be. The same ones who murdered our last decent president, JFK. We live on and we remember. How euphoric were the early days of the. Beatles! I could have been at that concert. And how evil was cutting down of our beloved President Kennedy.

I posted something similar above without knowing you had not only posted as such but lived thru it. I was like 14 days old at this point.

It,s been well documented that the murder of JFK and the arrival of the Beatles are tied in history, the nation reeling from their youngest president so publicly murdered and the last one exactly a 100 years before that and another beloved president Abraham Lincoln being shot ,the whole country still in mourning needed a massive jolt of happiness and joy to get it going again with songs like l wanna hold your hand, she loves you, can't buy me love, love me do, songs about love and happiness ,also they were exceppable to parents , unlike Elvis in 56 ,dressed in suits Normal hair, wholesome, no sexual overkill, no wonder the god fearing American,s loved them

[@boknows3841]

The only reason why they quit touring was because the technology of the time was not up to par with a big concert. Elvis, Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly would play a concert for maybe 500 people and Les Paul didn't forsee the need for 200 watt four channel amplifier, mixer boards and loud speakers. These people were playing quality music, not much more than what they played when they practiced. Had they had a better manager and someone to keep them out of trouble and not be so strickt , they could have went another 5 more years. But all they were allowed to associate with was prostitute and homosexuals because this was bubble gum music and you could not risk them getting some 13 years old girl pregnant. By 1968 they were being exploited and paid mostly in drugs and alcohol. And they got tired of having no life and their heads got so big that they thought they were gods.

I was there with my two sisters and a couple of neighbour kids. I was 14 at the time. Everyone was there for the Beatles but they only came on in the end. I can remember there were many acts before they came on. Maybe as many as 5. I only remember the Righteous Brothers were one of the acts. When the Beatles came on that's when the screaming started. You couldn't hear the Beatles at all. The energy and excitement was unreal. You could feel it in the air. Never felt it since even when we saw the Beatles again in Toronto a few years later after our family moved there. My father worked at the British Embassy and that's how he got the tickets. Neither my mother or father went. The energy in the place was so great that my younger sister started to scream too. That surprised me. Being a bit of a techy at the time, when we left that is when I saw the TV cameras. That surprised me because this was not broadcast live or broadcast any other time that I know of on TV. It was just for recording purposes and this was early videotape days no kinescopes so this was not done that often if at all because of the cost. So we are lucky to have this recording.

[@Vito_Tuxedo]

@moeb4348 - Every bit of the music track in this video is from studio recordings, dubbed onto the video, which has been masterfully edited to (in most cases) be in sync with the audio. It's great editing work, but the audio bears no resemblance whatsover to the actual sound of the live performance. The amps weren't even mic'd, yet somehow you can hear the guitars, and relatively little screaming while they're playing. Don't get me wrong; The Beatles were consummate professionals, who performed admirably under conditions that most performers today wouldn't tolerate. Their shows weren't about the audience hearing the music; rather, they were about the promoters raking in mountains of cash. Truth be told, I don't think most of the audience cared. The important thing (to them) was that *_they got to see The Beatles perform._* But if you think this concert sounded even remotely like the audio track dubbed onto this video, nope...not even close.

[@michaelgatton907]

@@Vito_Tuxedo True except the guitar break in "I saw her standing there" when suddenly for some reason the audio switches to the live track and they are tuned a half step lower, probably because back then there were no tuner devices to plug into; they just made sure they were in tune with each other, no matter if the pitch was off.

Speakers and amplifiers got big in a hurry. The industry didn't realize, until the Beatles played large venues, that big sound required big sound. The Cream didn't have the same problems. They came shortly after the Beatles.

@@tombryan1 Perhaps. The last "in the round concert' was done by Blind Faith and most considered that a disaster concert wise and band wise. Other than CSNY, thesupergroup idea was abandoned by the industry. Lots of people showed up but the group never really jelled. By this time Woodstock would take place and the art of speaker sound was up to the task.

[@kenwittlief255]

no, the garage bands, including the early Beatles, would use whatever amps and instruments they could get their hands on, cobble together, or build themselves for a while Paul used a bass speaker cabinet another guitarist was building and selling to friends, it looked like a coffin. Amps back then were putting out 15 to 20 watts. When the Beatles first went into the studio to record, they brought all their own equipment, and were quickly told your amps hum and buzz and sound like crap - they used the studios amps for recording Brian Epstein quickly made a deal with VOX to get the best amps they made, for concerts and studio recording (including this one). Vox worked fast to design and build 50W, then 100W, then 200W amps specifically for the Beatles. The thing that is odd now is, each of them played thru ONE amp. To get more output it never occurred to anyone to line up 2, or 4 or 8 amps for each musician, and build a "stack". That didnt happen until the Beatles last tour!

The band on the stage could hear themselves because they were in the middle of where the sound originates. You would know this if you’ve ever played in a band. It’s the audience who had trouble hearing because they were in the middle of a screaming crowd.

[@christopherpardell4418]

@@alanoliver5762 You obviously never played in a band. Modern bands have speakers mounted facing AT them that are playing out of phase to the sound from the sound system, because the sound system has a delay from their actual playing. The purpose of those speakers is to cancel out the delay from the amplified music and the reverb from the setting so the band CAN hear themselves, and NOT the sound coming out of the speakers. In this and other footage from these concerts you can see the band does NOT have such a system. And as a result. Had a hard time hearing the sound they were making since the sound coming out of the loudspeakers was slightly delays. THAT is why Ringo is beating the living hell out of those drums, so the rest of the guys could tell the ACTUAL downbeat from the amplified downbeat.

The Washington Colliseum was built in 1931 was originally an Ice skating rink. Then began using it to host various events. In the mid 60s we went there to see the Ringling Bro. Barnum and Baily circus. In the 70s we went their for the World of Wheels car shows they had every year. That place is abandoned now and has been for years. Sits right next to RFK stadium which used to be called DC Stadium before they killed Robert Kennedy, it was home of the Wash Redskins and Wash. Senators Baseball team. Both places are empty now. Before DC stadium was built the Senators and Redskins played at Griffith park, thats all demolished and Howard U. Hospital now takes up that space.
