Paul McCartney live: MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford

Paul McCartney performed at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA, on 16 June 2022.

It was the 16th show of the Got Back Tour, which lasted for 59 dates between April 2022 and December 2024.

Two famous sons of New Jersey appeared as special guests. Bruce Springsteen led the band through a version of his 1985 song ‘Glory Days’, before he and McCartney duetted on The Beatles’ ‘I Wanna Be Your Man’.
