The Beatles were on tour and they stopped in Toronto Canada on September 07 1964 and played Maple Leaf Gardens. They stayed over and left the next day on route to Montreal. During their stay in Toronto, documentary footage was obtained of the press conference, reaction to The Beatles via their fans and foes, a little bit of footage from the concert (mainly bits of "She Loves You" and "All My Loving" as well as their departure at the airport.
The set list for the Toronto show was basically the same as the previous shows in the tour. I have included the Toronto footage below from "Youtube".

The Beatles Live in Indianapolis
The 1964 Beatles North American tour had a stop in Indianapolis on September 05 of same year. They played a show at the Indiana State Fair Coliseum. There were two "houses" performed that day and the earlier show was fortunately recorded by the local radio station WIFE-AM. The entire show featured the same songs as the previous shows namely "Twist And Shout/ You Can't Do That/ All My Loving/ She Loves You/ Things We Said Today/ Roll Over Beethoven/ Can't Buy Me Love/ If I Fell/ I Want To Hold Your Hand/ Boys/ A Hard Day's Night/ Long Tall Sally".
The show can be heard on bootlegs such as the CD "State Fair to Hollywood". The quality of this show is deemed fine although I have not heard it in a long time.
I've also included a news report from the 1990's whereby the local news talks about and shows footage of The Beatles during their visit to Indianapolis. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB59g0z4BnU

The Beatles Live In Los Angeles
The Beatles played one show at the Hollywood Bowl, L.A. California, USA on August 23 1964 during their North American tour. It was decided at the time that the show would be professionally recorded and Capitol brought over a three track machine (?) to record the drums, bass, guitars and vocals by putting both the drums and bass on a single track, guitars on two and vocals on three.
This particular show has the same song order as the previous shows thereby as such "Twist and Shout/ You Can't Do That/ All My Loving/ She Loves You/ Things We Said today/ Roll Over Beethoven/ Can't Buy Me Love/ If I Fell/ I Want To Hold Your Hand (re-instated)/ Boys/ A Hard Day's Night/ Long Tall Sally".
The first song was released in mono and stereo with echo added (only the first minute or so) on the commercial terrible so-called "documentary" "The Beatles Story" Capitol 2-LP/ remastered CD (stereo only on CD). On side four (of the LP) you can hear the beginning of "Twist And Shout" before it fades.
There were acetates made of the entire show and it was mixed in stereo a month after the performance but was never released commercially until 1977 when EMI released "The Beatles Live At The Hollywood Bowl" - released on LP but as of this writing not yet available commercially on CD - which featured parts of the performance; namely "All My Loving", "She Loves You", "Things We Said Today", "Roll Over Beethoven" , "Boys" and "Long Tall Sally".
The entire show can be found on various bootleg LPs including "Shea, The Good Old Days", "Back in 1964 At The Hollywood Bowl"; and can be found with the entire intro and outro on such bootleg CDs such as "The Complete Hollywood Bowl Concerts 1964-1965" and "The Beatles At the Hollywood Bowl -The complete Shows" (on LP). I've included a Youtube clip of some of the show.
