Heheh. Somehow I suspected there wouldn't be. I mean, who's the star here,
after all. ;)

Not Roger, if that's what you mean. It's Macca, you know. ;)
There was some discussion of this on O&S, but since you've taken it
wrong, maybe I should explain further for everyone here.
The show at MSG was a deal between Paul McCartney and Mirimax and VH1.
It makes a lot of donations for a great cause, but it also serves to
promote all concerned. Macca is to headline, so he gets the prime
spot and all the press. But then a little problem ensues, called The
Who. Not only did they blow everybody off the stage performance-wise,
but they stole the finale, too--especially Pete. So, they've edited
Pete out completely for the re-broadcast.
