Paul Gets Back To Shea

As a bit of a big surprise to me- as it hasnt been reported on any websites or anything- Paul McCartney was one of the artists to join Billy Joel in the last concert at Shea Stadium last Friday, before it is to be torn down. The Beatles played the first ever concert there, in 1965, which was to a record-breaking audience for the time, then again in 1966. And now Paul was present for a mostly nostalgic return to the area, playing classics such as Let It Be and I Saw Her Standing There.

They were also joined by The Who's Roger Daltrey, Steven Tyler, Tony Bennett and Garth Brooks. Paul said of the event, "Came here a long time ago, we had a blast that night, and we're having another one tonight."
