I was lucky enough to see him at Yankee Stadium last summer - and it was the greatest show I've ever attended - or seen.
There wasn't a dry eye in the place when he paid tribute to George. And, of course he mentioned John. What is really nice is that as he does a song, the big screen behind the band shows clips of the Beatles as they were when they played Shea in '64.
Simply amazing to watch the people around you at one of his concerts. Teenagers who know all the words, middle aged folks screaming and jumping up and down. And then there are the older folks - and there were thousands of them - who kinda quietly mouth the words, and they have this sort of far away look on their faces - and you know exactly what they are thinking.
Even at aged 70, there is no entertainer that can touch him.....
