Half a dozen songs into Paul McCartney’s night at Acrisure Arena on Monday, he paused to slip off his double-breasted jacket.
Cue the high-pitched screams of fans, and for a moment, it was like being transported back to seeing the 21-year-old Beatle on “The Ed Sullivan Show” on Feb. 9, 1964, instead of McCartney solo in Palm Desert on Monday, Sept. 29.
McCartney shrugged as if to say, ‘”What? Who, me?” and the crowd screamed more, proving even at 83, he’s still the cute Beatle.
And, even at 83, he simply cannot stop.
Can’t stop touring : This run of shows, which started in Santa Barbara on Friday, Sept. 26, before heading to the desert on Monday, is a continuation of the Got Back Tour he began in 2022.
Can’t stop singing : After performing 26 songs in just under two hours
