Paul McCartney played his final Got Back show of 2024 at London’s O2 Arena on Thursday, and had a little help from his Beatles bandmate Ringo Starr and The Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood.
The show also featured a special appearance by McCartney’s original bass, which had been lost for 50 years.
"Thank you, London! We've been all over South America and Europe and here we are back home for the last shows of the 2024 'Got Back' tour," McCartney wrote on Instagram next to a carousel of photos including ones with Ringo and Ronnie. "Making its first stage appearance in 50 years... is my original bass! I haven't played it in 50 years and what is more, here's a special guest, a Rolling Stone: Ronnie Wood. And another surprise for you – the mighty, the one and only, Ringo Starr!"
Wood joined McCartney and his bass for The Beatles track “Get Back,” while Ringo got behind the drumkit to reunite with his Beatles bandmate for two songs “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)” and “Helter Skelter.”
Thursday night’s O2 show was the second of two concerts at the London venue. McCartney kicked off the 2024 leg of his Got Back tour in October in Uruguay, and so far has no tour dates on the books for next year.
