Billy Joel Joins Paul McCartney In New York
Paul McCartney brought his One On One Tour to Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York on Tuesday night. During the encore, Sir Paul welcomed Billy Joel to sit-in on a pair of classic The Beatles tunes.
“A Hard Day’s Night” opened Tuesday’s concert and was followed by a mix of Fab Four favorites such as “Can’t Buy Me Love,” “Blackbird,” “Something,” and “Hey Jude” with career-spanning cuts from Sir Paul’s solo work like “Jet,” “FourFiveSeconds,” “Band On The Run” and “Live And Let Die.” The encore began with “Yesterday” and a reprise of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” followed by “Helter Skelter.”
At that point in the show McCartney welcomed Joel to the stage to add additional keys to a rendition of “Get Back.” Billy stuck around for a subsequent performance of The Beatles’ “Birthday” before leaving the stage to Paul and his band. The Abbey Road medley “Golden Slumbers” > “Carry That Weight” > “The End” brought an end to Tuesday’s concert.
