Paul McCartney surprised fans by playing a small surprise concert in New York City on Tuesday night. The show, titled "Paul McCartney Rocks the Bowery," was announced at a venue for several hundred people, without any further warning earlier in the week.
Physical tickets - one per person - were available only at the box office of the Bowery Ballroom (a live music venue in New York City, in the Bowery district of Manhattan) and cost $50. Those fans who were able to be there and react in time quickly surrounded the concert venue.
All 575 tickets were sold within 30 minutes.
It should be noted that was the last time Sir Paul McCartney performed in front of a crowd of 82,000 people at MetLife Stadium near New Jersey. Launched in 2022, the "Got Back" tour brought McCartney to arenas and stadiums in North and South America, Europe, and Australia.
"Hey, that was the Beatles screaming!" said Paul McCartney, responding to a scream from an audience member in the middle of his grand surprise concert.
