Paul RockCartney
Every wonder why everyone says the Beatles are the best band of all time? The Answer wasn't hard to find the past 2 nights @ Fenway Park. As ¼ of the Beatles Paul McCartney took the city by storm. He was his charming self and commanded the stage an crowd like a it was 1964.
McCartney shared stories of John (Lennon), George (Harrison), Linda (McCartney, Jimi (Hendrix), Eric (Clapton) but no Ringo (Starr, or Starr-less, because you know it don't come easy). His stories were some of the best I have eve heard on stage. Just think of some of the bands you really dig today staying around for 4 more decades and the stories they would have.
Paul played numerous Beatles songs like, I Saw Here Standing There, Drive My Car, Eleanor Rigby, & many many more. He also shared many Wings and solos songs onstage. The highlights of the set was when he played “A Day In The Life” and threw in “Give Peace A Chance” and the crowd chanted every word with the peace sign held up.
MGMT opened both shows and played a rather tame show (due to the audience I would believe). They were solid and a band to keep an eye on.
