Further odd, he prefaces the song by saying, "This is for all the Wings
fans." "Too Many People" is pre-Wings. Reminds me of his Live 8 interviews
in which he indicated he never before performed live the opening Sgt Pepper
track.

Also, the Washington, DC concert occurred Oct 8, the night before John's
birthday. Unlike other venues, Paul sang "Happy Birthday" for John. The
irony is he did this then immediately launched into "Too Many People".
