McCartney homecoming

Paul McCartney ended his world tour with a homecoming show at Liverpool's Kings Dock before 30,000 fans, announcing his wife is pregnant and that he has made up with Yoko Ono.

30,000 McCartney fans packed into the specially-built Kings Dock arena near Liverpool city centre on Sunday for the final date of the ex-Beatle's world tour after a secret performance at the (new) Cavern Club. After a tour that saw performances to more than two million people in the US, Mexico, Japan and Russia from what we hear the homecoming gig was quite something.

At one point Macca made comment to the news his second wife is pregnant. He told the crowd: "I'd like to dedicate this next song to someone very special in the audience. As you might have heard we had some very good news recently." He then launched into ‘My Lovin' Flame’, dedicating to his wife. McCartney went on to tell reporters he has officially made up with Yoko Ono after that falling out over how Lennon McCartney tracks should be credited.
