About
This impromptu concert was a warm-up for the Glastonbury performance scheduled on June 25. It was announced on June 23. The 800 tickets, which could only be purchased at the venue and were available on a strictly first come first served basis at a price of £25, were sold within one hour.
Paul McCartney and his band arrived on stage at 6 pm and performed a trimmed-down version of the recent “Got Back” tour setlist. Olivia Harrison, Judd Apatow, Leslie Mann, Brian Johnson from AC/DC and Olivia Rodrigo were in the audience.
Good evening Frome – why am I getting a feeling we are going to have some fun!
Paul McCartney – After playing “Junior’s Farm”
Here’s a song that we’ve never done live in England until tonight, so it’s a first for Frome.
Paul McCartney – Before playing the “Out Of College” section of “You Never Give Me Your Money”
Ok so there does come a time when we’ve got to go and it coincides with the time you’ve got to go. Most of all we want to thank you for coming along and having a ball with us tonight!
