Rod Stewart and the McCartneys at Lewisham Odeon

The Beatles played at Lewisham Odeon twice in 1963, but that wasn't Paul Mc Cartney's last time on the stage there.

In November 1974, The Faces with Rod Stewart played three nights at Lewisham Odeon. One night Paul and Linda McCartney came along to watch, the former having recently written the song 'Mine for Me' for Rod. So Rod called the two of them up on stage to sing along. Footage of the gig surfaces sporadically on youtube - here's a very poor image from it.

...and also a (watermarked) picture taken backstage at the Odeon


Anybody out there who was at this gig?

    I was outside, a massive Rod Fan and got friendly with Rod's Chauffeur whilst waiting for the 94 bus to Petts Wood!
