Paul and Nancy McCartney attend the Oasis concert in Pasadena

On this day, Paul and Nancy McCartney attended the Oasis concert at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena. The show was part of Oasis’ Live ’25 reunion tour, marking their first live appearances since the band split in 2009. Among the celebrities in attendance were Leonardo DiCaprio, Salma Hayek and Kristen Stewart. Paul was seen filming Noel Gallagher performing “Little By Little.”

Reports suggested that Paul was in the Los Angeles area both to continue work on his upcoming album and to rehearse for his US tour, scheduled to begin at the end of September.

It was incredible. It was incredible to see [Oasis] back together again. And Paul McCartney was actually there and I think they sang a Beatles song. I remember I was in the section next to him and the whole sort of stadium looked back at Paul and clapped for Paul too which was which was awesome. It was a great tip of the hat. So, it was a special night.
