Dedicating Here Today to Lennon, he said, "I love New York and John Lennon loved New York. I wrote this song for John after he passed away. It was a one-sided conversation saying things to him I never said".

There was a mini-Beatles reunion at the concert when Ringo Starr joined McCartney on vocals for A Little Help With My Friends and then got behind the drums for the encore, I Saw Her Standing There.
