- It is an iconic venue which kick-started the rise of The Beatles' popularity in the UK and led to their fateful meeting with manager Brian Epstein. And Sir Paul McCartney returned to where his music career began on Thursday with a headline gig at Liverpool's Cavern Club - more than six decades after the band first took to the stage. The legendary musician, 76, sent fans into a frenzy as he rocked out onstage during the exclusive gig, held at the famous venue on Mathew Street, Liverpool, at 2pm.

I remember Paul not having the nicest words to say about the decision to turn the original into a parking lot.
Yeahh
what'd 'e say?
can you blame him
4 lads from Liverpool conquering the world. What a massive inspiration they are for my city.
All of Merseyside mate
amazing to see this guy is still rocking, what a legend
Good to have Paul McCartney back!!! But I do miss John Lennon and George Harrison.
We still have our ringoo starr
So wish that I could have been there for that show. Paul is a legend in his own right & is doing a great job of keeping the music alive. There is no doubt that the music transcends those four lads from Liverpool who wrote the songs & recorded them so long ago. Just think back & remember the first time you ever heard a Beatles song. Now that's worth remembering.
Thanks so much Paul for your talent & for giving us the music that shaped all of our lives...........................
First time I heard a Beatle Song was riding in the back seat of a 1961 Chevrolet Bel Air with brother listening to Elvis' "Don't Be Cruel" after which played "I Saw Her Standing There", and as much as I just enjoyed Elvis' song, I knew I just heard just as great, or greater, sound and was puzzled how two songs could be so great and so different. Unbelieveable. Always thought that the juxtaposition of those two songs broadcast back-to-back was powerful because I had enjoyed "Don't Be Cruel" so much, and then this new sound coming behind it brought on a new era. That memory has become symbolic for me of a huge era of music going out and a new one coming in. Couldn't have known it at the time, but it sure was powerfully felt. Push the envelope once, Hurrah! Push it twice, HURRAH!!
This is Great! If your a Beatles Fan what could be better than a close up gig with Sir Paul?! Better see this while you can and while he still can play and sing. It’s amazing he’s still doing it! Thanks for sharing!
At 76 years of age it is wonderful to see that Sir Paul still gets a buzz out of performing live and creating new music. It is also wonderful to know that we still have a small chance of seeing one of the great song writers of the 20th century live. Yes, there are a few idiots who want to troll and leave silly comments. But that behaviour says more about them than it does about a unique talent which has given so much happiness to so many for over five decades.
I agree with you to an extent. But I think the singer Billy Joel -who is a huge fan of McCartney (as am I) -is also right when he says that McCartney is damaging his own legacy and reputation by going on and on with vastly inferior new songs, and with a performing voice which is no longer what it was.
It is evident from your other post that you know your music history. Therefore I assume that you understand the evolution of popular music. I respect your opinion. However, I have to agree and disagree with your comment to me. I enjoyed some of Sir Pauls most recent albums such as 'Memory Almost Full' and 'Chaos and Creation' more than his early efforts such as 'Red Rose Speedway' and even a couple of his efforts with the Beatles such as 'Beatles For Sale'. I even think his last effort, 'New', produced some songs of credit. However, I do agree that his voice is not what it was. Despite this fact, I think it almost impossible for him to damage too much a legacy that has few equals.
Chaos and Creation was unusually good for late McCartney -Beatles standard at its best even -so I agree with you there. Much of what he has produced in the last 20 years has been quite poor, and certainly inferior to Paul at his best. There will have to come a point in the next 5 years when he concludes that performing live is self defeating and damaging to his own legacy.
I agree that his days as a live performer are drawing to a close. And that is sad, but also within the natural course of things. But once again, I do have to differ with you on his musical output over the last 20 years. Did you hear 'Flaming Pie'? Have you heard 'Memory Almost Full'? When you compare these albums to 'Wildlife' or 'Wings at The Speed of Sound' from the early part of his solo career you will note how superior they are. But that is just my opinion. Take care.
I agree that some of his later albums are superior to very early wings albums like Wild Life and Red Rose Speedway ( the latter came close to rejection by EMI because it was substandard). But thats because those early albums were unusually poor. (But Dear Friend from Wild Life is sublime) My favourite Paul albums are Tug of War, Pipes of Peace and the brilliant Chaos and Creation. I was bitterly disappointed by New. We will have to wait and see what the new album holds. Who knows -there might be some classics on there which will make me eat my words. But those two new songs are a bad omen. Someone should have advised him not to release those. But I want to be proven wrong with the new album......
The walls sitting waiting for 50 years
Paul: hello
The wall: HE HAS RETURNED
if those walls could talk
Different walls
It's not the cavern it's the Harrington bar
Sir Paul I want to thank you for all the joy and happiness you brought to me and all your fans throughout the years, and no doubt, for future generations to come. Thank you for still performing with such heartfelt love for your fans. LOVE & PEACE to you always and forever and May God Bless YOU Sir Paul!!❤
Sir Paul McCartney is a LIVING LEGEND 😍. Wishing someday to see him perform live. That would be a DREAM COME TRUE.
The Keeper Of The Flame. He's still got it at 76. Amazing...
Bill is 81 now~ Where did the time go???
He is 80 and he isnt Paul.
I did previously suggest for PID'ers an appropriate embracing term - Collective Unified Nurturing Truths, as acronyms are so much easier to identify with!
weirdplanet108 - Many thanks & trust me don't go there! I have and encountered some particularly messed up and unpleasant individuals. In any event they don't want facts getting in the way of what has become an enduring and preposterous myth! Last year I was chatting to a guy who knew Paul well pre and substantially beyond 66 and he finds it all laughable! Utter BS! Take care.
...and his name is not monosyllabic either! lol
Saw him in concert last year. It was hands down the most exciting, entertaining show I've witnessed.
McCartney McCartney McCartney thank God you keep going and are still with us .
He is a God in Liverpool, met he & Linda when his cousin was my boyfriend, it was one of major events in my life. He came up to Liverpool at New Year to his Auntie Ginn’s & was playing the piano. I was in heaven!!
Paul is such an amazing man...oh my such wonderful times during The Beatle's era....I miss The Beatle's so much. Thank God they left us with such a large amount of wonderful music and memories.
come on "daily mail" how how hard would it have been to get a direct audio from the live console and either go wireless or sync it in post ?? seriously ??
So gutted I missed this love Liverpool, cavern etc... amazing xx
I was there Yesterday..Absolutely Fabulous ! This Cavern was built brick by brick of the original Cavern when it was demolished ! To me it's the same Club ,
Only the other side of the Street.
Is that right Irene it was knocked down and built on the other side of the street'' why man' to you it might seem normal' but i think seems unusual'' but was this a 'crafty property selling point''' to always have a retainer 'of revenue' that the famous Beatles played here''
The Cavern was knocked down because it was a dump and so it made way for a car park, I find it impossible to believe the same bricks were used. even if they were it's not the same Cavern.
Dean Scott exactly' there's all of this romanticism of memory ''but you say it as it is '''straight and true'' I would find it hard to believe 'and as you say' how can people say its the original cavern 'and does Paul McCartney think the same 'as you and me''because how can you stand on the stage and say ''this is where it all started'' its like trigger in fools and horses''i have had this broom 15 years its the ''original ''you know its only needed 3 shanks and 4 heads
Pete's Guitar Lessons TV nah Pete I don't think anybody's hurt about it '' but I am 61 ill ,strokes etc disabled etc''' but' isn't it funny'' I have records LPs CDs of the Beatles 'and when beatles or stones come on the TV you immediately perk up' we think we know everything ''but until this little bit of news about the cavern'came up''i wouldn't have known any better'as I am from the north east of england''' I just think Pete when we are gone, we can't take anything with us, so wouldn't it be absolutely wonderful if these multi millionaires,billionairs said right let everyone enjoy,and feast like a king''''and distributed amongst needy people,for there fortunate life ' ''and as Paul says'' money can't buy me love'' but you can have a good time finding it''''
Pete's Guitar Lessons TV I agree with you Pete..what people forget is he has earned every penny..he's our modern day Song writer /along with John lennon. He has brought up a family and provided well. And before you all kick off...he comes from a working class background. Dead anyone tell Mozart to give his money to the poor ? Let's be honest here who else do you see in the music business doing free gigs in their home town ? Err Excuse me..no one !
La leyenda esta de regreso, en donde todo empezó, Increíble Paul, we love you.
For an alternative look at the Cavern please read Mardi Gras Club Liverpool
Maybe he did later, but it would have been cool if he played Some Other Guy
Yeey! Thanks sir Paul! Thanks daily mail for the free glimpse of the concert!
thanks for the horrible audio mix too :)
(we still understand it-no worries)
The world loves you Paul
Cool. Good to see him still out rockin'.
Ross Marvin must be joking,he as been over the hill for ages,remember princess Diana's funeral,think he swollowed his tonsils lol
Yesss!!! The legend himself Sir Paul love you!!!❤️
We all love Paul. Thanks for all the memories!
not Paul, it's Faul
I'm 67 and fortunatelly my young years were listening The Beatles songs. God bless Sir Paul McCartney.
Coming back the Cavern is a full circle 💕 I wonder if John was still here, do you think John would have joined him?
I took my then 17 year old daughter, Madilyn, to see Paul at Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles in August 2014...30th row seats in centerfield! Great show, great Memory 😎
Oh Sir Paul, YOU RULE!!!!! Always loved you, always will.
It comes to something when the older generations music is cooler then the younger generations! rock on paul mcartney at 76!!! ...long live rock and roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..er ta! ...i enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why all the hating? Sir Paul is 76, and his voice is still great. There are some rock n' roll guys out there, in their 50's and 60's who can't hit the notes they used to either--so what?! You take them all for what they are now; if you want to go to their concerts and buy their new albums, fine, if you don't, don't. No need for the attacks. I've been to many McCartney concerts in the last decade and he can hit most of his notes--high ones and low ones. Sometimes he forgets the lyrics, catches himself, laughs it off, and starts all over again--at least you know that he's actually singing. He gives a three hour, amazing, dazzling concert, night after night, standing on his feet most of the time. I'm not sure how he can do it without taking a bathroom break at his age, but he does. I saw him for 3 consecutive nights in September ; he showed no signs of fatigue after all that performing; I was more tired than he was, and I'm 20 years younger. There are many reasons to admire him-- for his musical genius, for his humanitarianism, for the happiness he has given millions, for the devoted parent that he is to his children, and for so many more reasons. If you're not on board with that, try to take the advice that most of us learn in kindergarten --if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.
I want to frame this comment and hang it on my wall! Paul has enriched my life like no other, and even if he doesn’t have his age 25 vocals anymore (who born in the 1940’s does?) he still sounds fine and it’s not about perfect singing, it’s about being in the same room with the man who gave happiness to millions for sixty years and paying him the respect he deserves. I’ve never seen him live and I want to kick myself for it… I’m sure he will retire after this year’s tour 🥺
When a person sings his own words, it s the spirit and his soul that we hear. For those of you commenting on vocals, I hear true music. He could whisper the words and it would still be on point. Over 50 years of singing the same beloved songs, thank you Paul for staying true to you.
Fantastic concert! Watched it last night on bbc.
Brilliant from Paul.Means so much to scousers to know that you know Paul that you are one of us.We all so proud of you.Back in Liverpool alot these days it seems...but you never really left did you,you just visited quietly.76 and as brilliant as ever.Just like Jerry Lee you will keep on rockin.In the town were I was born...was a mannn who loved to play..and he told us of his dreams...in the laannd of his hometown...!! THE BEATLES .....take your pick from classics to rock..hidden meanings in the songs...the paul is dead story is maybe what one poster on here is on about and everyone knows its not the original cavern but a replica that was built when mathew street was rejuvinated.
james sander You are Spot on James..I'm a born and bread Scouser, and proud..I don't know anyone who doesn't like the Beatles or Macca.!! I'll tell you why he lives in our hearts...no matter where he goes the World over..he Loves Liverpool...he is at his happiest here...and has never forgotten where he came from.! How many artists do you know who would do a free 2hr gig ! And as for the fools ' on here saying he's promoting his new Album...RUBBISH ! He doesn't need to it will sell on his name alone. He has put a lot of his own money in to .LiPA..is here quite often as he has a house here and his brother and family members live on the Wirral !! He deserves everything he's worked for !!!
Wait, you say he doesn't need to promote his new album, but there's a big poster outside advertising it?
Come on FFS, he talks with a half phony yank accent. scouser my arse!
obviously he is more scouse than you dean scott...a speke lad made good.
YOU JUST SEE HIS FACE BRIGHTENS UP AND SEEM SO HAPPY TO BE BACK HOME !...HIM AND RINGO HAVE NEVER FOGOTTEN THEIR ROOTS !..... LIVERPOOL FOREVER,RIGHT PAUL 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏💖👍🏴💥🔥🎵
Bendito seas Liverpool por darle al mundo a tus hijos más ilustres.John,Paul,George and Ringo.Thank you.Greetings from Peru!
Amo Paul ❤
Fitting venue for a legend. I bet Paul loved it!!
Paul McCartney just keep the beatles alive. Welcome to Quebec in September for the 2 times. rthanks you so so much. xxxxxxxxxxxx
Back to the club..a group of 4 young liverpool lads performed for the first time as the Beatles.
Amazing back to the past... Paul, Cracow waiting for You :-*
Mais uma do nosso querido Paul...
Thank you Robert,you tell them please!!!
He did this several years ago. Great thing about that time is David Gilmour played guitar. David once said he wished he could have been in the Beatles. Never heard an established musician say something like that. Hopefully it wasn't just after a fight with Waters.
He likes being paul. Why all the negative comments? What have you done?
love Paul
POR SIEMPRE THE BEATLES;QUE ALEGRIA ES VER PAUL NUEVAMENTE
Such a legend
Paul would be ill-advised to undertake a tour of major venues.
Macca Has Not Lost His Touch:!! Still Fantastically Amazing:!! Just Love 2 Look
At Him:!! So Unique/He's Timeless🕰 I Will Love Him
Always, So Much Happiness
He's Brought 2 All His FAN'S
Forevermore McCartney ❤🙆♂️❤
Was everyone told that the venue was not the original (actual) Cavern..... that was flattened!
Three years ago in September 2015 I was there
Paul melhor artista do rock de todos os tempos br ai alguem concorda?

Awesome
He did actually play The Cavern back in 1999, I guess he fergot.
This is Paul #3.
Faul 2
Very cool.
HE TAKES THE STAGE ONCE INSIDE ,AND JUST SAYS ..... LIVERPOOL!....THE PACKED CAVERN CLUB GOES ABSOLUTELY NUTS 😂😂😂😂💖💖💖😭😭😭😭🙏💖👍 I KNOW I WOULD 💖👍
Mito ❤️
POR SIEMPRE ROCK AND ROLL YEAHHH
Thank you Billy for still rockin' on 🎤🎸🎼 there's hope for us all yet! 👍🏻
How much did the tickets go for/how were they advertised???
It wasn't a suprise gig not when Chris Evans was announcing where to get tickets from on radio 2
Craig Mcghee Craig I have been a fan'' got lots of Beatles records''' but Really' the venue,is not real ''if its not the bloody original building 'standing up etc. 'look we have pop stars footballers''ha ha bbc disc jockeys etc etc multi multi millionaires''if these want to do GOOD ,earn the praise' of ,hey look at me, i am ever so talented .''but you keep on buying my records CDs videos'' while i store up my family's wealth''etc etc' ''''tell them to open there wallets ,bank books, trust funds etc etc''and go around to the poor people of Liverpool, Manchester Newcastle ,Middlesbrough's Leeds etc''''''and place money in to the hands of unemployed' disabled, old ,the homeless'''the needy and desperate''''''then they will follow the words and meaning of the bible'' distribute your wealth.''you can't take it with you''its easier for a camel to go through'' an eye of a needle''
Not the real Cavern Club as the original was demolished but it is a real Beatle onstage!
Yeah!
Thanks for kicking me out after 3 minutes due to taking a photo despite everyone else holding their phones up and doing the same thing
Regreso al lugar donde los vieron crecer bien hecho mi paul
Cool So Cool
Simply divine.
I have been there
How could they have torn down the original Cavern?!
Liverpool のPaul は一段とイキイキ感が違う😹🎵ね❤❗😍⤴⤴🎵
I'm disapointed Paul you did not show up 22 years ago when I was there. LoL ! 🎵
🤩🤩
I am not a great fan. But one thing , I do respect. He hasn't forgotten his roots. Unlike some some divas.
he already did this in 2000 (and played a bunch of old rock and roll tunes that were more fitting to the club)
🥰😍😍
This fellas made it in life over and over again. Just cos youve got an audi on h.p.does not constitute the same unfortunately. Sir paul works when he wants to and does what he wants to.. End of story. Y. N. W. A
Good real good
....it "was", was rebuilt same street...best wishes
2:42 What Every single Fangirl Looks Like.
Great cavern
🤩
He did that while back this would be his second but not his first.
Glad you noticed.
Who are the guitarist and bassist. Without my specs it looks like joachin low ( the German football coach) and Duff from Gn R .
I just wish the others were here
Cool
Lenda viva
#GODLIKE
3:30 "Worth every penny." That's great when it was a free gig... 😂
people paid to get there and took time off work unpaid , so it did actually cost us something
VERY VER GOOD
Reminds me of the time me granddad wandered away from the home, and we found him at the karaoke bar.
"And the first one (original Paul) said to the second one (imposter Faul) there, 'I hope you're having fun.'
- - Band on the Run
A surprise that apparently everyone knew of
Should I see the Beatles. There's a free concert by me soon as well as other people playing.
💪❤️
It's sad that the actual Cavern shut down. This is a next door building, where the owner tried to make things "as close as possible" to the real thing.
So cool I wish I was there :(
FANTASTIC!
I would have given 10 years of my life to have been here for this!
Really? is your life that sad?
