Paul McCartney live: BC Place, Vancouver, Canada

Sir Paul McCartney peformed to 60,000 fans at the BC Place Stadium in Vancouver, Canada, as part of his On The Run tour.

McCartney’s previous performance in the city was with The Beatles at the Empire Stadium on 22 August 1964.

Vancouver, you are a mover and a groover, Vancouver.

Rumours that McCartney was to have been joined on stage by Bruce Springsteen turned out to be false, although The Boss was said to have been backstage during the show. The rumours appear to have originated from Tweets posted by radio station CKNW. Springsteen is scheduled to play Rogers Arena on the following evening.

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).

To be clear, Vancouver, you rocked my freakin' face off for our whole show tonight. The best #seriouslyouttacontrol #radd #slumberparty?
