Neil Young Joins Paul McCartney Desert Trip #SETLIST

Paul McCartney has played his set for Desert Trip, the three-day music festival in the California desert dubbed Oldchella and Neil Young joined him for two songs.

Young, who opened the show, came back on to perform The Beatles ‘A Day In the Life’, John Lennon’s ‘Give Peace A Chance’ and for the very first time ever live The Beatles ‘Why Don’t We Do It In The Road’ with Paul McCartney.

‘A Day In The Life’ was a common inclusion in Young’s setlist about five years ago. He was using the Beatles classic as his closing song. McCartney and Young previously performed the song together in London in 2009.

Desert Trip, from the makers of Coachella, is on this weekend at Indio, California at the site of the Coachella Music Festival.

Desert Trip featured Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones on Friday, Neil Young and Paul McCartney performed tonight and The Who and Roger Waters will play on Sunday night.
