Pretty much echoing all the posts on here today, a near perfect gig. Loving reading everyone's thoughts on it!
So glad we went, and being on the floor was so worth it. At Glastonbury, just by its very nature, I felt like we missed out on the show and the intimate side of actually being at a gig of an actual Beatle, so last night was a completely different experience. Too many highlights to mention but Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End is an extraordinary piece of music.
I also found a huge appreciation for the Wings stuff last night too, had Band on the Run (the album) on all day.
The sound quality was insane, the atmosphere was electric.
Also agree with @Badlands about Hey Jude at Glastonbury, I guess when its 4-6x the amount of people in that field it will give it a bit extra. That and Let It Be were probably the ones that I would look back slightly more fondly at the Glastonbury versions, but pretty much everything else I enjoyed more last night.
Live and Let Die, with the flames and fireworks, was incredible indoors.
There's my hungover brain dump!!
Indeed! This is baby Bee! She's now got Chic, Elton, ACDC and Macca in her bag, outside of Bearded Theory 23 and Truck 24! She loved it. She gets it as well. Knew it was big.
I think that's because lots of us were not there for those early years.
Believe me I'd love to be able to bang on about Bowie's set if I'd seen it first hand, or tell you which Blur headline set was better, but I can't. I don't think anyone intentionally tries to hide the history of it - it is celebrated, and well documented.
