Was very good. Was surprised how decent his voice sounded given his age and stuff.
The sound system at NIA ( now Barclay card whatever) in Birmingham is a bit terrible but my god he sounded brilliant when did few acoustic numbers like Blackbird , And I Love Her and others.
Was a three hour set and played a LOT of Beatles stuff , some Wings stuff , solo stuff but threw in few random songs like Temporary Secretary which i always liked.
Basically put was first time id ever seen Macca or any Beatle live and his 40 song setlist worked as a reminder how many great songs he has wrote . The Golden Slumbers / Abbey Road end bit was great.
His cover / George Harrison tribute of Something was great also.
Was a good show.
Only mared in parts by a bad soundsystem.

He's the headliner of this festival I'm going to in Dover, DE in a couple weeks and I am BEYOND excited to see him live, I never thought I'd get to see him! Plus other artists like Morrissey, Kings of Leon, Foster the People, and the Killers are performing too so I'm really excited!

Ever heard the version he did on "Concert for George" with Clapton? That's definitely the most beautiful live version of that song. I cried a bit when I watched it the first time.
