Bruce Springsteen’s concert in London’s Hyde Park ended with organizers of the Hard Rock Calling Festival pulling the plug on him while he and Paul McCartney were still on stage playing. Springsteen had worked the crowd for three hours when McCartney joined him.
They were singing for 65,000 fans in the pouring rain when the organizers turned off the microphones because of a 10.30 p.m. curfew. The festival was the Boss’ 45th show in a 67-date tour of North America and Europe.
