Citerank: (5) 107989"Enduring" Lennon's murderLennon's murder took place in 1980, more than eleven years after the band had broken up. The individual members mourned his death, but in no way was this something the band had to endure.22FF97FF, 108002Stopped Touring"After a year or so of relentless touring and chaos, the Beatles decided to stop touring. In the wake of JFK’s death, safety was also a concern. Their last official live concert was at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, on August 29, 1966."13EF597B, 108011Members walkout during recording sessionsThe band's conflict is demonstrated by members walking out during recording sessions. John wasn't the only one who cause trouble by doing this--Ringo and George also grew frustrated at Paul's managing technique, or fights with other members, and ended up walking out.1198CE71, 108013A second movieIn early 1969 Paul wants to do another movie, but no one else does. They settle on a documentary that ends up recording the beginnings of the Beatles break-up.1198CE71, 108015Big-Mouth PaulMcCartney was the member who broke most of the gossip that would have stayed within the band otherwise. Paul announced the break-up to the media, just like he broke the news of their LSD use after Sgt. Pepper's (surprising, I know).1198CE71
