As expected Sir Paul played a bunch of Beatles songs, all the songs from his new “Fireman” album, and he played covers of other bands songs as well.
Other celebrities attended the event to see the show for fun, celebrities spotted in the VIP area: Robert Pattison, Kirsten Dunst, Kate Bosworth, “Weird Al” Yankovic, etc.

Wow!!!! What a killer lineup!! Better than last years!!! Sir Paul will probably perform a bunch of Beatles songs and his solo stuff. Hope Amy Winehouse is clean enough to perform so she won’t suck, I have a feeling she will, that woman needs to stop performing. I wonder why the Coachella booking agents would want to book a drug addict to the Festival anyways when fans will probably boo her off the stage.
Seeing Leonard Cohen’s gotta be amazing. Cool show, wish I could be there.

Don’t want to wait ’til Nov. 23rd to pick up Guns N’ Roses new album “Chinese Democracy”? Don’t worry!!! Myspace confirmed they will post the full album in it’s entirety in the Guns N’ Roses official myspace page. You’ll be able to stream the album but not download.
Paul McCartney will also do the same with his new album “Electric Arguments” played by his band the Fireman. These two albums will be on myspace tomorrow on Thursday.

I’ll especially give the new Guns N’ Roses a listen tomorrow on myspace. I’ll listen to the Sir Paul one too of course, but I’m more interested in hearing the new Gn’r album. I had planned on buying the “Chinese Democracy” album and I want to listen to the whole thing first in case I want to change my mind.
