I had low expectations for Macca, but he totally blew me away. Hey Jude was amazing. Only at Coachella.

Tis ain't no claim. I recorded the entire set about 30 feet from the stage and am actively gathering additional footage for said multi-shot dvd. Anyone who would like to send me footage, upload it and send the link to: idiotkings@hotmail.com

One of the greatest Coachella night performances, I loved the set, Helter Skelter was great...

An amazing performance. I really loved hearing all those Beatles classics over the polo field...such a wonderful and magical Coachella moment...it will be hard to top that. I wish I hadn't gotten sick halfway through his set from heat exhaustion (had to fight my way out of the crowd to go lay down) but I still loved every second of it regardless. Come back anytime Paul! OWL YOU NEED IS LOVE!

I think people were more amazed by seeing one of The Beatles than by his actual performance.

In a word: AMAZING. Anyone who says otherwise didn't give him a chance or stay the entire performance. There wasn't a dry eye in the house--at some point everyone teared up--maybe because of emotional connection to the songs, maybe because they realized they were witnessing history.

I discovered rock and roll thanks to a Beatles record I found in my house (where no rock music was heard) when I was 6 years old. I'm not a huge Beatles fan nowadays (I really was as teenager), but I love great music. I just can say this was the most memorable performances I've ever been ever. Maybe this does not mean anything to anyone, but Paul just made me feel it's worth living and love music. What a Sir!
