henry bear Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 ‘The Beatles: Eight Days a Week’ - Ron Howard’s documentary about their touring years is on C4 on Christmas Day. Well worth a watch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I'm very much looking forward to tonight. Heard some very good things from the Liverpool and Glasgow gigs and could be a great last gig of the year for me. A Glastonbury announcement would top it all off nicely.

Robofish Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 First time seeing Macca tonight at the O2. He was outstanding, a great setlist and a fabulous band. His vocals sounded excellent to me. A man with that songbook, and that charm...it would be my favourite night at the Pyramid ever (well, maybe equal with REM, Radiohead and Bowie). I do hope he joins the party for 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Jass Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Macca was ace last night, get that man on the Pyramid! 76 years old and the pipes are still strong. Ringo and Ronnie was a nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only person in the world for whom this can be deduced from a single frame Great gig. I thought I might have heard the word 'Glastonbury' in the thanks at the end but probably wishful thinking. Saw Ringo and Ronnie at the start and was sat next to Richard Curtis, Geri Halliwell, David Walliams, Emma Thompson, Stella McCartney and Stephen Fry. Seemed like a real who's who Voice on top form and would be fine for Glasto on a warm day Edited December 17, 2018 by UEF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The universe certainly seems to be inferring as much. In other news: I’m still intrigued and want to hear more about @stuartbert two hats ‘complicated’ theory / forumula thing that demonstrates Macca’s ‘one third’ contribution to the Beatles.

Chef Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Really enjoyed last night, great gig and he would be perfect for the Pyramid stage. Just a shame about the public transport issues at the end to take the shine off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avalon_Fields Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Missed McCartney in 04 as my mate refused to go, so we saw Ocean Colour Scene instead - who were good - but can’t miss Macca again, then I’ve seen at least one Beatle.

I never criticise other people's choices and staunchly believe people should enjoy the festival however they see fit, but missing Macca to see Ocean Colour Scene??? Christ. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
