New additions to the setlist included the live debut of ‘Women And Wives’, plus versions of ‘Getting Better’ (for the first time since 2003), ‘You Never Give Me Your Money’ (2003), and ‘She Came In Through The Bathroom Window’ (2008).

The Beatles’ 1968 song ‘Back In The USSR’ was a notable omission. During the encore McCartney returned to the stage waving a Ukrainian flag.

The performance of ‘I’ve Got A Feeling’ included a duet with John Lennon, using footage from The Beatles’ January 1969 Apple rooftop performance.

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).
