Each of The Beatles had a different idea about performing on stage but the negatives shone through which was why they eventually stopped touring. They loved the rush of being on stage, and the thrill of the adoring fans, but also got annoyed when the music could not be heard for the screaming and when the famous Jelly Babies were pelted at them. It comes as a shock for many but all the Beatles suffered with stage fright. John Lennon said that his nervousness was the reason he did not wear his glasses on stage.
"I'd lose me nerve if I could see everyone in the audience, y'know? I like to have it all sort of vague." - John Lennon 1964

∙ 12y agoIt varied through their career; in the early days (before their first trip to Hamburg), they were pretty poor. They improved enormously and quickly on their trips to Hamburg. When they returned they gave, by repute one of their best ever concerts where they realised they'd become a good band.
Late 1962/early 63 was probably their peak as live performers; they had tremendous energy and enthusiasm. There exists a recording of their performance on a Swedish pop programme in 1963 that's, particularly for the time, extraordinary.
Their first US tour also had some good shows; particularly in Washington.
After 1964, they became tired of performing (they'd essentially worked every day for 2 years, so it wasn't surprising) and the Beatles show became a notional 30 minute show that was often was reduced to 20 minutes by playing faster. Even so, listening to the Hollywood Bowl performance, they were such good singers and performers, that they were never bad.

Who had the most 1 hit singles Elvis or The Beatles?
Elvis was about ten years ahead of the beatles. Interesting side note. In those days getting to appear on the Ed Sullivan show was a guarantee to launch a career. There was a country singer trying to get national attention that appeared on the Sullivan show the same night Elvis Presley did. Of course Elvis so overshadowed the guy that everyone forgot about him. He kept trying and finally landed a gig on the Sullivan show again. But, as luck would have it, that was the night the Beatles first performed in America. So, once again the guy was out performed and forgotten. I used to know his name but can't remember it anymore.

It's one of the most significant events in music history as it was also when John Lennon met Paul McCartney.
