Correct. As in you are correct. We are correct. They are wrong and not correct.

It was incredible. The only complaint anyone could have would be his voice isn't what it was but he's 80 ffs. I'll be happy if I can wipe my own arse when I'm 80.

[CaledonianGonzo]

His voice was in decent shape. Better than it was 20 years back at any rate 😃 

[Gnomicide]

I thought it had dropped off from the previous times I'd seen him but didn't really notice on the night (apart from some of the slower numbers), just on the rewatch when I got home. Didn't detract from the gig though.

Remember a lot of "Paul should retire" chat after this absolute binfire in MSG in 2001.

This was actually worse than the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers.

Macca's been heard soundchecking for tomorrow's Taylor Hawkins tribute at Wembley, not entirely surprisingly

I thought he was superb and one of the best sets ever.

2.5 hours of mastery.

Totally agree with you 

[NorthernSoul52]

Just can't stop Macca popping up places, can you?

As an early christmas present, this article and video popped up on the BBC web site, containing some pretty cool backstage footage.

Nice one - lifted me on this cold, dark Tuesday morning. 😀

Saw it this morning. Great insight into the pyramid backstage and the rehearsal with Springsteen. There must be some great as yet unseen footage from behind the scenes at Glastonbury. Would make a tremendous documentary

Interesting that they are seen rehearsing I Wanna Be Your Man with Springsteen. They did it in the US the week before, I wonder if it got cut or if he was only ever going to do the one song.

They did do it, didn't they? I'm 99% sure they did Glory Days and I Wanna Be Your Man.

Maybe Drink? To be fair the bangers just kept coming and merged into one big singalong. I watched the whole set when we got home Just to remind me what we witnessed

I didn't properly watch the BBC footage so don't know, just had it in my head he only did one song until the encore.

Maybe I was just so made up with Glory Days that I wiped it from memory.

Seems very well filmed just for a 3 minute thing. Wonder is there something bigger coming?
