8. What did the Beatles decide to do after 1966
Answers
Answer:
The Beatles staged their third concert tour of the United States in August 1966, and it was the last commercial tour they undertook. Lasting a total of 19 performances, with 17 shows in US venues and two in Canada, it was plagued with backlash regarding the controversy of John Lennon's remark about the Beatles being "more popular than Jesus", death threats, and the band's own dissatisfaction with the noise levels and their ability to perform live. Although it was a commercial success, ticket sales had declined since the group's previous visit, in August 1965. Late in the tour, the band returned to Shea Stadium in New York, where they performed to an audience of 45,000, compared with the 56,000 world record attendance they had achieved the previous year.[1] After the 1966 tour, they became a studio band and focused exclusively on record production.
