Sir Paul McCartney has come together with fans for a surprise show at a pub while filming in Liverpool.<\/p>\n

The former Beatles star was a day tripper to his home city on Saturday to record with James Corden for the Late Late Show presenter's Carpool Karaoke.<\/p>\n

After going here, there and everywhere, Sir Paul took the chance to get back to what he does best with a show for about 50 fans at The Philharmonic pub.<\/p>\n

Sean Kennedy, who was at the show, tweeted his life was now "complete".<\/p>\n

Earlier in the day, the pair were seen driving their car on Allerton Road, posing for pictures with The Beatles statue at the Pier Head and walking on Penny Lane.<\/p>\n

When word started to spread that Sir Paul would be performing in the city, crowds began gathering outside the pub as fans tried to see something of their hero.<\/p>\n

    Audience member Daniel Smith told BBC Radio 6 Music's Mary Ann Hobbs the "atmosphere was amazing".<\/p>\n

    He said after hearing about the gig, he "jumped on the bus, hoping to catch him on his way out".<\/p>\n

    Having managed to get inside, he said he "started shaking, because I couldn't believe it was Paul McCartney stood a metre in front of me".<\/p>\n
