When you have time to kill between weekends of Desert Trip, naturally you’d want to take in the local sights. When you’re a former member of The Beatles, taking the sights turns into an incredibly intimate display of live music performance.
That was the case last night, when Paul McCartney surprised fans by announcing a performance at the 300-capacity venue Pappy & Harriet’s in Pioneertown, CA. The venue itself has been noted as something of a historical site, originally built for Western movies and television in the 1940’s and 1950’s and subsequently converted into a saloon, restaurant and live music venue.
With 300 people lining up almost immediately, McCartney’s show was jam-packed with enthusiasts. The former Beatle did not disappoint, treating fans to a 20-song showing with hits from his career as a Beatle, a Wing, and as a solo artist.
Watch a handful of songs from the show below, and see the full setlist below.
