The band performed The Beatles’ song ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ for the first time on the tour, replacing ‘All My Loving’ in the set. They also played a version of the folk song ‘San Francisco Bay Blues’.
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).
Had a blast at Outside Lands. Not as cold as I thought, and we threw in S.F.Bay Blues. That's all in the US for now. See you soon…

#OutsideLands was a religious experience. I know that phrase is hackneyed – but this time, I mean it. Perhaps Bill Graham smiles on
