Mr. McCartney wasn’t the only big guest. The country star Garth Brooks, dressed in a Mets T-shirt, sang Mr. Joel’s “Shameless,” which was a big hit for Mr. Brooks; Steven Tyler of Aerosmith performed “Walk This Way;” and Roger Daltrey of the Who — which played at Shea in 1982 — sang “My Generation” as Mr. Joel smashed a guitar on the center-field stage.

And not to mention Tony Bennett, who duet-ed "New York State Of Mind," as well as a troupe of U.S. Veterans, and NYC police and fire fighters, who joined in for "Goodnight Saigon."

And I was there.

I can't imagine another event beating this one. It was like everyone was in a dream. You saw it on stage, you heard the people around you singing... but you just couldn't believe it.

What a show. Just incredible.
