 Billy Joel joined Paul McCartney in a special surprise appearance to climax Paul McCartney's second and final night at Yankee Stadium Saturday night.

Joel joined in on "I Saw Her Standing There." The two have been making a habit of showing up at each other's shows. McCartney showed up during Joel's series of final Shea Stadium shows and Joel returned the favor when McCartney opened Citi Field, which replaced it. 

 McCartney did some minor tweaks to the set list, opening with "Magical Mystery Tour" instead of "Hello, Goodbye," switching the order of "Jet" and "Junior's Farm" and adding "I Saw Her Standing There" (for Joel) and taking out "Day Tripper."
