I was 10 when my aunt n uncle took me to see the Beatles at Dodger stadium 1966 and the screaming was nuts.

Fue el primero Y se nota el esfuerzo,están sudando la gota gorda *Actuar en esas condiciones fue una proeza,¡¡¡ y con esa alegría!!!* Así que a partir de este concierto, el negocio empezó a avanzar en tecnología Fue el comienzo Hasta eso les deben todas las demás bandas que después actuaron en estadio...

Billy Joel played the last concert ever at Shea Stadium in 2008. Paul McCartney helped close out his set, kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJykoGWFaKt-h68 . Elsewhere there was an article that the attendant who helped the Beatles in 1965 was there to assist Paul in 2008!

During a tour of The Beatles, journalist Larry Kane asked their manager, Brian Epstein, how long he thought they would last, to which he responded: “I'm telling you, Larry, there is no other band, there will never be a band like them, for all eternity. They are the best, I'm telling you Larry, here in 1965, the kids of 2000 will be listening to the Beatles.”

100% agree with this. George was extremely talented, but was overlooked/underrated because of Paul and John. George was lucky to get one or two songs on any Beatles album, so when the Beatles broke up, George had a ton of great songs ready to go for his solo career. He certainly left an outstanding legacy.

[@aspenward390]

Finally, I was able to watch the documentary, "Get Back", on Disney. Though it was three parts and over 6 hours(?) I didn't feel a single bit bored. I actually cried a few times from joy and sheer amazement from watching them create much of their last two albums. And for me, there was a deep catharsis of locked away emotions surrounding their breakup. As a child of the times, and experiencing my parents divorce (which was still rare then), the Beatles breaking up was traumatic to me. And I buried that anger away, but it never disappeared entirely, until recently, while watching them. It was such a joy to see John and George. I hope you guys get to watch it soon.

[@CharlieJ69]

Love those shots of Brian Epstein in the video, without him it's very possible The Beatles don't happen

[@rosek2967]

They stopped doing live performances because all the screaming made it impossible for them to hear themselves. I believe they performed at Shea Stadium in 1965. I think you'd enjoy watching/reacting to their first film "Hard Days' Night" which gives a very good picture of how nuts everyone was going over them when they first came on the scene.

The moment they came out of the dugout i looked at my friend and she looked at me. My mouth was open wide, tears streaming down my face, just as she was. Our screams could not be heard because the sound of the crowd was deafening. There they were, where I was. What a thrill.

[@josephtingley654]

The Beatles are the greatest musical act of all time and the greatest gift given to the world. They have no songs that sound the same as any of their other songs, first to break every barrier of music, revolutionized the way music was recorded, everything in the 60's from clothing to hairstyle was influenced by The Beatles. The Beatles led and everyone else followed and still are to this day. Want proof, Now and Then (the last Beatles song) went #1 in the Uk and #2 in the US, after 50 years of not being together. No other artists can do that.

[@odonnelly46]

The phenomena of the crying, screaming, etc. is partially due to the fact that Rock and Roll and these types of concerts were still so NEW. This event took place a mere 11 years after Elvis' first live concert. Live Rock and Roll concerts were still a very new experience, and Rock and Roll stars were more visible than celebrities had ever been, due to television having become so common. So this was a new social phenomenon.

[@surlechapeau]

[@bradsullivan2495]

During their final tour in 1966, the Beatles actually played a "doubleheader" in two cities on the same day. Their concert in Cincinnati got rained out, so the performed the following afternoon at Crosley Field, the one-time home of the Reds. That night, they played in St. Louis at Busch Stadium, where the Cardinals played for decades and had only opened a few months before that.

When Linda collected herself enough to talk, she screamed 'I'm going to see The Beatles at Shea Stadium!!'

Paul was being driven out to Johns for a songwriting session. After an uneventful trip Paul, in a bit of small talk, asked the driver if he had been busy. The driver said to Paul, 'Aye, I've been working 8 days a week'. When Paul arrived John asked him if he had a song to work on. Paul said "No, but I know the title, 'Eight Days A Week'. 3 hours later the song was finished. Needing some last-minute tweaking on the intro/outro which they eventually polished off in the studio. John double tracks his vocals during the verses with Paul joining on the Hold Me/Love Me as well as the songs 2 bridges: (Eight days a week, I love you) This song was slated to be the last Beatles single of 1964, only to be replaced by I Feel Fine.

Shea stadium was the 1st stadium rock concert as far as I know. The result of the poor technology from that gig, not being able to hear themselves play was what made them think that they should give up touring and become the first studio band. A band called Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.

[@DocRock71]

The Beatles were so big they had to play in baseball stadiums to meet the demand for tickets, the first to do so. Their final concert (not counting the one-off Rooftop Concert) was in Candlestick Park in 1966, and they devoted the rest of their time as a band focusing on their studio work and albums, until they broke up. The hysteria and excitement the Beatles caused was coined "Beatlemania" and J's right, very few artists in history had fan reactions that intense.

[@northernlight2598]

Oh for the days when hand claps were the 'special effect' that helped bring a track to life. The Beatles were just guys, but when they were making music, it was like a light that brightened up the world, at least just a little. They were blue collar guys, everybody's band, and never pretended to be anything else.

I WISH people would stop referring to the female fans as "WOMEN" They were NOT adults, they were TEENAGERS (like I was then) and preteen girls. OVER 21 was when you were called a "WOMAN" Just call us GIRLS. NO adult women were crying, screaming and fainting. Most adults, or parents didn't even like the Beatles and no WOMAN would be caught dead behaving like us teenage and preteen girls at a Beatles concert.

"Eight Days a Week" was first issued as a single in the USA in 1965, after debuting in England the previous year. "Helter Skelter" came out on the White Album in 1968. So the differences you hear are partly the result of how they changed over time. Back in the day, we heard that progression as we and the society we lived in also changed over time. I was 13 in '65, 16 in '68. Interesting times to grow up in.

Released as a stand alone single. It was recorded at the same time as The Beatles For Sale. The story goes that this was the first album they recorded after meeting Dylan.

THANK YOU for a great reaction!!❤❤❤ I saw them in 2 concerts -- once in the crowd & once from stage side when I met them. Yes, the energy was manic -- the fainting, craziness, frenzy were all real -- never saw such a mass of humanity in such an atmosphere of joy & love! 💜🩵💙💚

[@allendesalme197]

A lot of their old stuff sounds just like this - there was a progression to their sound over time. They are also wearing the Nehru jackets that they basically made famous.

The Beatles were the first to have a stadium concert in 1965. The biggest crowd to attend a concert up to that time. They were huge. And they would only perform for half an hour. People went crazy for them. The man standing to the side of the stage was Brian Epstein, their manager. The Beatles were the biggest stars in the world for years. Nothing, and I mean nothing has ever, or will ever match how huge they were. The Beatles Forever!!!!

[@josephscally6270]

I know two women who were actually there for this performance, They both have told me that the screaming was so loud that you could barely hear the band. Realizing this, the Beatles retreated to the studio where creativity exploded.

[@jennifermartin7791]

Do “Get Back” or “Paperback Writer.” You will LOVE the bass guitar.

[@ohfour-seven6228]

This is one of my very favorite Beatles' song! So glad you liked it. And those hand claps are right out of Motown!

[@watrandy99]

You should really, really, really should watch the Beetles' 1964 movie "A Long Day's Night" ... It truly displays the personalities of each member wonderfully.

[@bodiespizza]

This was a seismic leap in music at the time. The best part is we still have it all and can listen to the progression of The Beatles, and other bands, sound through the years. It was a great time to grow up in.

[@gkiferonhs]

HOOO. RAYY!! No matter how good the individual members are, you can't beat them all together!!

[@debrabeck9630]

We were just listening to this song earlier today, along with some other Beatles’ songs. You’re right about those harmonies. Fabulous.

[@paulogaldino4488]

The Beatles definitely saved and restarted all the rock’n roll and pop music. They were 100 years ahead their time.

[@beatlejim64]

Eight Days a Week...released as a single in the US in Feb.1965...got to #1 as usual. The footage is from August 15, 1965 when The Beatles played Shea Stadium in NYC. On this night...this was the BIGGEST concert ever held...over 56,000 crazed fans witnessed history..."Beatle mania" at it's peak!!!

[@bradparnell614]

This song comes from the often overlooked and underrated Beatles for Sale album. This was their 4th studio album that came out at the end of 1964 in the UK. "No Reply" was also a big song from this LP along with other greats like "I'm a Loser", "Baby's in Black", and "I Don't Want to Spoil the Party". There are a couple of lesser known tracks that I think are terribly underrated called "What You're Doing" and "Every Little Thing". The big single that wasn't on the album but released around the same time was "She's A Woman"/"I Feel Fine".

[@labajadaman]

Don’t forget a favorite of mine…I’ll Follow The Sun!

[@scottchapin2323]

THE BEATLES had the best harmonies. GREATEST BAND EVER

[@Bill_Jones.]

“She Loves You” to “A Day In The Life” in 4 years. Geniuses.

[@jennybird6268]

One time several years ago I was listening to this song in my car. Then I heard my little girls voice from the back seat, “ oh I get it! His week has two Sunday’s!”

[@dustinjones8887]

The Beatles were the 1st to play a stadium,,,Shea Stadium. This song was early in their 8 year window of brilliance in late 1964. Rob Squad: Take early songs like this and Please Please Me, then listen to Helter Skelter from 1968 and get your mind blown of how far they evolved in 6 years.

[@jeromiemunoz2920]

You guys gotta do their "Helter Skelter" song which hard core!!!

[@surlechapeau]

they said they recorded a reaction in the last couple of days to that one. Hopefully it will be posted soon.

[@tcarnold6425]

And Pat Benatar's version, next time they do a covers day! 👌

[@LeeFred78]

The gentleman standing in the foreground at 4:45 is Brian Epstein, the Beatles' manager.

[@chrisg9196]

*The background for "Eight Days a Week" title, as told by Paul McCartney: "I was going out to John’s house in Weybridge a lot, and on this particular day I was chatting to the chauffeur and, at the end of the journey, I just happened to ask him what he’d been doing. He said, ‘Oh, I’ve been working eight days a week.’ I ran into John’s house saying, ‘Got the title.'"*

[@robertg7396]

On the premise of their popularity, Jay. At the height of "Beatlemania," John Lennon once said in an interview, "Right now, we're more popular than Jesus." The world lost their minds over that comment, and the Beatles became public enemy #1. Station's were boycotting their music, people burning their albums, etc. It was crazy.

[@hellokimmy68]

I always have to request "Get Back" every time y'all do a Beatles song! Killer bass line and Paul singing. Also, I love "Lady Madonna" and "Paperback Writer", which was a bit earlier. "The Ballad Of John and Yoko" is one that I don't think I've seen anyone react to and I think you'd like it, as it kind of tells the story of the craziness of that time. And "Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds" is a great little psychadelic trip. It's amazing though, that they morphed through so many different styles and genres in just the few years they were all together.

[@DerGlaetze]

Back in the day, it was such an exciting time. Every new Beatles song played on the radio was an event.

[@shaun374]

The Beatles eventually stopped touring and performing live. One of the main reasons was because the venues got so big (giant baseball, open-air stadiums) and the crowds were so outrageously nuts over them that they couldn’t hear themselves play. And pretty much every musician will talk about how important it is to be able to hear yourself and bandmates play. You’re kind of seeing what they were dealing with. And remember, they were only like 23-25 years old when playing in these stadiums (they were about 20-22 when they recorded 8 Days a Week).

[@susanliltz3875]

This video shows you Beatle mania !! All the screaming and fainting girls !!! They said it was so loud they couldn’t hear a thing they were singing!!

[@user-eq6cx6mn1v]

Please review She’s leaving Home from Sgt. Pepper. Not a hit, but one of their most beautiful songs

[@keithdixon6595]

Apparently it was Ringo who said it felt like they were playing 8 days a week when they were in residence in a club in Hamburg. They played several hours every day, which is where they really learned their craft.

[@BluesImprov]

I saw Paul being interviewed about the title of this song. He said he was in a taxi one day in London and he said to the driver, "How ya doin?" And the driver sighed and said, "Man, I'm so tired. I feel like I'm workin' eight days a week." Paul laughed, and he said that later on he remembered what the taxi driver said and thought to himself that the driver's reply would make a good song title. So he started dreaming up some lyrics to fit that title. Pretty cool. He said he got the idea from that taxi driver!!

[@stevedahlberg8680]

That strategy is hilarious! Going to pass out but then wait for the right moment and then when you get close to them, pop up out of the stretcher! Laughing my ass off, Amber.

[@BillGraper]

Michael Jackson had tons of women passing out back in the Thriller days. LOL! This is early Beatles, and uber cool! 😎

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

Eight days a week was a Ringo malapropism that John picked up on. The Beatles were the first band to ever play a stadium. They drew 58,000 here. That is A LOT of screaming girls. Unfortunately they had to use the stadium PA system for sound, it wasn't meant for that and had less than stellar results. But nobody, including themselves, could hear it any way.

Happiness is a warm gun, yer blues, cry baby cry

[@jennyjenny4501]

I love early Beatles!

[@Jagangela]

Early Beatles laid the foundation!

[@Phaedrus10]

The Beatles at Shea Stadium - a major event in music history (or just plain history)….There were some shots of Brian Epstein, their manager… He was essential to their success

[@reginasawicki3458]

1965. Shea stadium. Yoy actually could not hear them because they were using baseball p. a . Speaker. Things have improved sound wise!

[@johnbumgardner7977]

Love the Beatles forever ❤
