The [[wikt:transatlantic|transatlantic]] broadcast from Wembley suffered technical problems and failed during [[the Who]]'s performance of their opening song "[[My Generation]]", immediately after [[Roger Daltrey]] sang "Why don't you all fade ..."

[[John Entwistle]]'s bass wouldn't work at the start, causing an awkward delay of over a minute before they could start playing.

While performing "[[Let It Be (song)|Let It Be]]" near the end of the Wembley show, the microphone mounted to [[Paul McCartney]]'s piano failed for the first two minutes of the song, making it difficult for television viewers and the stadium audience to hear him.<ref name="CNN"/> During this performance, the TV audience were better off, audio-wise, than the stadium audience, as the TV sound was picked up from other microphones near McCartney. The stadium audience, who could obviously not hear the electronic sound feed from these mics unless they had portable TV sets and radios, drowned out what little sound from McCartney could be heard during this part of his performance. As a result, organiser and performer Bob Geldof, accompanied by earlier performers David Bowie, [[Alison Moyet]] and [[Pete Townshend]], returned to the stage to sing with him and back him up (as did the stadium audience despite not being able to hear much), by which time McCartney's microphone had been repaired.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/arts/pictures/0,,1328579,00.html |title=Live Aid Galleries |newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=22 May 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140823042901/https://www.theguardian.com/arts/pictures/0,,1328579,00.html|archive-date=23 August 2014|url-status=live}}</ref>

During his opening number, "[[American Girl (Tom Petty song)|American Girl]]", [[Tom Petty]] flipped the [[The finger|middle finger]] to somebody off stage about one minute into the song. {{Citation needed|date=November 2023}} Petty stated the song was a last-minute addition when the band realised that they would be the first act to play the American side of the concert after the London finale and "since this is, after all, JFK Stadium".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0261024/quotes |title=Memorable quotes for Live Aid |work=IMDb |access-date=21 May 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050419205651/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0261024/quotes|archive-date=19 April 2005|url-status=live}}</ref>

When [[Bob Dylan]] broke a guitar string while playing with the Rolling Stones members [[Keith Richards]] and [[Ronnie Wood]], Wood took off his guitar and gave it to Dylan. Wood was left standing on stage guitarless. After shrugging to the audience, he played [[air guitar]], even mimicking [[the Who]]'s [[Pete Townshend]] by swinging his arm in wide circles until a stagehand brought him a replacement. The performance was included in the DVD, including the guitar switch and Wood talking to stagehands, but much of the footage used was close-ups of either Dylan or Richards.

During their duet on the reprise of "It's Only Rock 'n' Roll", [[Mick Jagger]] ripped away part of [[Tina Turner]]'s dress, leaving her to finish the song in what was, effectively, a [[leotard]].<ref>{{cite news |title=When Mick Jagger and Tina Turner Performed Together at Live Aid |url=https://ultimateclassicrock.com/mick-jagger-tina-turner-live-aid/ |access-date=9 June 2020 |work=Ultimate Classic Rock|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150715174745/https://ultimateclassicrock.com/mick-jagger-tina-turner-live-aid/|archive-date=15 July 2015|url-status=live}}</ref>

The UK TV feed from Philadelphia was dogged by intermittent buzzing on the sound during Bryan Adams' turn on stage. This continued less frequently throughout the rest of the UK reception of the American concert, and the audio and video feed failed entirely during that performance and during [[Simple Minds]]' performance.
