Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr reunited on stage in front of thousands of people for the first time in years.
It all went down Saturday night in Los Angeles during the encore of McCartney’s sold out show at Dodger Stadium. Ringo, who just celebrated his 79th birthday, fell right back into sync with McCartney.

And Starr wasn’t the only surprise cameo of the evening: During the encore’s performance of the Abbey Road medley “Golden Slumbers”/“Carry That Weight”/“The End,” Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh came out for a shredding solo. (McCartney later self-deprecatingly remarked, “We didn’t have a clue what we were doing,” but Walsh seemed perfectly in sync with the band.) Pierce Brosnan was also caught on the venue’s video screens singing along to the “na na na na” refrain of “Hey Jude”.

The setlist for his final “Freshen Up” tour date was:

A Hard Day’s Night
