Guess who hit a home run at Citi Field last night?
Hah - you're funny. The Mets weren't home and they don't hit home runs.
The correct answer is the guy who helped rock Shea in 1965 with a little ol' band called The Beatles.
Paul McCartney.
OK, Sir Paul McCartney. Whatever
Check out the setlist, courtesy of Glenn Gamboa at Newsday:

Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band/The End
I like this mix, that blends his solo work (including Wings) with that other band. A little Billy Joel sprinkled in, on "I Saw Her Standing There", doesn't hurt either.
There's another show tonight and one more on Tuesday before he goes to Landover, MD and eventually to Fenway Park for two shows. I hope he's OK with that, as he's a big Yankees fan.
This is a true statement.
MAJOR UPDATE: There are still tickets available for tonight's show and I just bought one. A review will follow.
