Sir Paul McCartney’s On The Run tour continued its South American leg with the first of two concerts at the Estádio do Arruda in Recife, Brazil.
The setlist was almost identical to the band’s previous show in Bogotá, Colombia. The main difference in Brazil was the omission of ‘Hope Of Deliverance’, which had been an unexpected addition before.
Here’s McCartney’s rendition of Yesterday, also featuring some tuneless vocals from the crowd:
McCartney’s band was Paul ‘Wix’ Wickens (vocals, keyboards, guitar, percussion, harmonica), Brian Ray (vocals, guitar, bass), Rusty Anderson (vocals, guitar) and Abe Laboriel Jr (vocals, drums).
