On July 17, 18 and 21, Paul McCartney played 3 shows at Citi Field in New York, the first concerts held in the building which replaced Shea Stadium. McCartney's link to Shea, and its successor, is the stuff of legends. When the Beatles played Shea on August 15, 1965, they bacame the first rock band to ever play in a sports stadium, and in doing so changed the concert scene forever. Then on July 18, 2008, Sir Paul joined Billy Joel during the last concert ever played at Shea Stadium, singing I Saw Her Standing There and then, Let It Be, which would be the final tune ever played in that building. Two days before those historic firts concerts at Citi Field, however, on July 15, 2009, 5 years ago today, McCartney played an unusual warm up at another location which held memories for the former Beatle. Sir Paul and his band set up shop on the marquee of the Ed Sullivan Theater, the very same theater where the Beatles made their US television debut in February 1964, one of the most watched moments in the history of TV. This TV audio of that performance, which stopped traffic on the Upper West Side of NYC, captures Sir Paul's 7 song set in its entirety.
