Indeed. Thankfully I was at the closing ceremony rather than the opening. Hving said that, the remnants of The Who demonstrated that night that they should have packed it in when Keith Moon died.
Then there were the Spice girls doing a wonderful impression of five cats being strangled at the same time.  ;D
But back to McCartney. He has done absolutely nothing worthwhile since the Beatles. Obviously addicted to fame / adoration.
Even Springsteen and Dave Grohl couldnt save him.  ::)

They certainly were. Musically and culturally. And they produced a really great songwriter in George Harrison, who was unfortunately overshadowed by the ocean going sized ego,s of the two lesser talents in the band.
They would never have become what they did though without George Martin. His musical knowledge and production skills were a very big part of their success.

I'd have given baby spice 20 minutes of my time 20 years ago, before she found where the biscuit tin was hidden.

Yes, DG is a naive youngster who would not appreciate the wonderful music created within that great Liverpudlian band that changed history. ::) ::) ;)

Their songs still being performed 60 years later speaks for itself,I detect a lot of jealousy from certain comments but accept bitterness from some who are not happy with their lot.😟

As I wasn't around when they were fresh, new and controversial, they've always been just generic, boring music to me.

My Dad played in various Big Bands,culminating in Jeff Laycocks Big Band. They tried to go professional and appeared on Hughie Greens opportunity knocks. They “ won” playing Norwegian Wood that was a George Martin but I think written by Harrison/Mcartney. I say won , as Hughie took them to one side and said they couldnt afford to bring them all back so you can come second! I still have the EP they produced. They didnt go professional. Probably for the best as Big Bands went out of favour sadly.

The crowds are determined to enjoy themselves no matter what the acts are like. Bloody good luck to them, it's good to see people having a great time like that. I, for one, wouldn't criticise anyone who got up in front of a massive audience like that.
Best 'old' group I have seen (on tv) at Glastonbury was The Cure in 2019. The set was brilliant from start to finish. Robert Smith can hold a crowd in the palm of his hand and I forgot just how many hits they had.
