This is an excellent band, buoyed by Laboriel’s muscular drumming and the ensemble’s relatively youthful vibe.
McCartney’s considerable musical prowess is often overshadowed by his songwriting, singing and personality. But he was outstanding on his Hohner bass and played piano, mandolin and even ukulele with authority. He switched to guitar on several tunes, doing a Hendrixian electric solo during a snippet of Jimi Hendrix’s “Foxy Lady” grafted onto the end of “Let Me Roll It.”
Ringo Starr, the other surviving Beatle, emphasizes “peace and love” throughout his concerts, which take place in smaller venues like [Mystic Lake Casino Showroom](https://www.startribune.com/ringo-starr-brings-beatles-mystic-lake-toto-steve-lukather-edgar-winter-colin-hay-hamish-stuart/600309093) in Prior Lake. Simple as it sounds, McCartney’s message is “all you need is love.” Love can bring people together. Leave all your social-message divisiveness on your phone and come to a stadium with 50,000 other people of unknown persuasion and sing “Na-na-na-na, hey Jude” in unison.
