Wood was a surprise guest at the McCartney gig where he performed The Beatles classic ‘Get Back’ with Sir Paul.

Ronnie was in Sydney last week visiting his daughter Leah and two-year old granddaughter Maggie.

Meanwhile in the audience, Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour had tickets to the show.

For Paul, this was the homecoming gig. “It’s so nice to be home, we’ve been travelling round the world. It’s such a nice little scene here, I’m just going to take a second to drink it in myself,” he told the crowd.

He dedicated the ‘Band On The Run’ track ‘Let Me Roll It’ to his family who were also in the audience.
