Springsteen recently made headlines for his surprise appearance at last month’s Glastonbury Festival, the “Born In The USA” singer joined fellow rocker Paul McCartney on stage during the former Beatles’ set. During the now legendary performance, Springsteen treated the audience to his hit “Glory Days” and teamed up with McCartney to perform the Beatles classic “I Wanna Be Your Man”. Later on during the event, Springsteen made a return to the Pyramid Stage to join Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl for a performance of “The End”.
McCartney performed his headlining slot at the Pyramid Stage on 25th June 2022 and was also joined by Grohl, after the completion of “Get Back” the singer motioned to the former Nirvana drummer to join him on stage. The “Come Together” singer said to the roaring crowd, “Now, I’ve got a little surprise for you, your hero from the west coast of America – Dave Grohl!” After the pair exchanged pleasantries, they performed “I Saw You Standing There” and “Band On The Run” The live collaboration marked the first time that Grohl had been seen on stage since the tragic passing of his bandmate and friend Taylor Hawkins.
